Rate Radar FAQs
A hotel rate shopper that tracks your hotel and up to five competitors for every date a year ahead, on the world’s largest OTA and on the websites of major hotel chains. Signals are ranked High, Medium or Low, so you know which dates need a decision first. Parity monitoring is included at no extra cost.
Rate Radar updates all 365 days once a day, at a time you choose, and again whenever you press Update prices. Each update is a fresh check of your hotel and every competitor, and takes under a minute. Paid plans have unlimited updates, subject to fair use. The 7-day free trial includes up to 4 updates a day, counting the daily one and, on your first day, the update that runs when setup finishes.
No. On a paid plan there’s no number of updates to stay under. Fair use is about how the account is used: no scripts or auto-clickers, no shared logins, and no using it for properties you don’t run, manage or set rates for (Beacon Pro is built for that). A busy day, such as the day a big event is announced, is normal use. The 7-day free trial includes up to 4 updates a day.
No. Rate Radar works on its own and is ready in minutes. Connect a PMS if you want to see how many rooms you have left to sell.
Rate Radar shops the world’s largest OTA as a guest would, and the websites of major hotel chains that sell mainly through their own sites. It captures every room and rate plan, what each rate includes (from room only to all-inclusive), and how many rooms are left per room type when availability is limited. Sales are flagged as sales. Partner offers and targeted deals are kept out of the comparison and flagged in Parity Monitor, so you compare the prices most guests see.
Some hotels only sell certain dates as part of a longer stay, for example four nights or more, so a one-night search finds nothing even though the hotel isn’t full. Rate Radar recognises this minimum stay and shows LOS 4 (a four-night minimum stay) where the price would be.
You can track up to 6 properties: your own hotel, plus 5 competitors you choose when you set up. Any of them, including your own hotel, can be on the world’s largest OTA or a major hotel chain’s own website.
365 days, for your hotel and every competitor. Parity monitoring covers the same year ahead.
