Your website should be your cheapest channel.
The ZimmerStack hotel booking engine shows live rates and availability on your website. Guests book directly, with no booking commission charged by ZimmerStack. Payment-provider fees, when applicable, are separate.

Everything between a look and a booking
Direct guests abandon at friction. Each of these exists to remove one specific reason people fall back to an OTA.
Live rates & availability
The engine reads the same inventory your board and channel manager use. A room shown is a room available, priced by the same rate plans and seasons.
0% commission on every plan
IncludedOn every paid plan, the booking engine charges 0% commission. The direct channel exists so you stop paying commission, not so you pay it to us. If you use only the free website, without a plan, you can still take bookings for a small share of each one (5% today), which you see and accept before booking is switched on.
Book now, pay at the hotel
Guests confirm right away and pay at the desk. Advances and balances are recorded on the folio, and every booking lands on the board at once.
Always cheaper than OTAs
Hold your direct rate a step below OTA rates automatically. Guests who compare see it, and the “book direct and save” promise becomes real, not a sticker.
Promo codes & corporate rates
Negotiated company rates with billing to account from Growth. Wedding blocks and repeat-guest promo codes from Scale. Configured once, honored everywhere.
Hotel website included
FreeNo website? We generate a fast, image-led hotel site with your rooms, gallery and the engine built in. It runs on the same stack already live at working hotels in production.
Bookings land on the board
A direct booking creates the reservation and appears on the front-desk board straight away. The closed inventory leaves ZimmerStack for your OTAs with no extranet to open. No email-to-register copying.
Email confirmations
Built inGuests get a confirmation email with their booking and a link to manage it. You get an email for every new booking too.
Your direct rate, priced too
The engine prices your own website alongside the channels and holds it below them. Your cheapest channel stays cheapest without anyone maintaining the gap by hand.
The commission math, out loud
This is the whole argument for direct bookings, on one table. The booking is the same on both sides; the difference is what reaches your bank. On a paid plan the booking engine takes no commission. On the free website without a plan, it takes a small share of each direct booking (5% today), which you see and accept before booking is switched on.
