From Chaos to Simplicity: How JSM Optimizes Hotel Multi-Rate Plans for Airbnb and VRBO Success

What is JSM? The Hotel Rate Plan Optimizer

Jetstream Synchronous Mapping (JSM) is your hotel’s new best friend! This proprietary tool takes the chaos of multiple rate plans and turns them into streamlined, guest-friendly promotions tailor-made for Airbnb, VRBO, and other short-term rental platforms.

Think of JSM as a translator that speaks fluent Hotel and Airbnb. It bridges the gap between complex rate plans and the simplicity demanded by OTAs.

Hotels typically juggle dozens of rate plans per unit type. Revenue managers work hard to create amazing offers, but platforms like Airbnb and VRBO? They only want one rate plan with promotions layered on top. That’s where JSM shines—by making your complex rate structures work perfectly on these platforms.

The Problem JSM Solves: Simplifying Complex Hotel Rate Plans

Complex Rate Plans and OTA Limitations

Revenue managers use multiple rate plans to target specific guest segments with tailored offers like:

• Advance purchase discounts
• Seasonal promotions
• Minimum-stay requirements

While this works well on Hotel-type OTA’s such as Expedia and Booking.com, the new STR OTAs like Airbnb and VRBO don’t like complexity. They demand simplicity—one core rate plan with promotions that fit neatly on top.

The JSM Solution: Single, Streamlined Rate Plans

JSM takes your multi-rate plan chaos and transforms it into a single, optimized rate plan ready to shine on Airbnb and VRBO.

Here’s how JSM works its magic:

• Analyzes multi-rate plans daily
• Picks the best discounts and restrictions for each unit and date
• Combines everything into a single rate plan with promotions tailored for short-term rental platform.

“JSM takes the square pegs of hotel multi-rate plans
and fits them into the round holes demanded by OTAs.”
– Ben Day, Director of Data & Revenue
