1 min read

Before you start

  • Create a Hopper Hosting account.
  • You’ll get an email from Hopper Homes, click Join Hopper Hosting and set your password.
  • During setup in Hopper:
    • Click Yes for “integrating with a PMS”
    • Select Channex from the dropdown
  • Currency warning: Hopper Homes only works with USD. We will convert your currency to USD automatically, and bookings will come in USD.

Create the Hopper Homes channel in Mangobeds

  1. Go to Apps → Channel Manager. You land on the Channels tab
  2. Click Connect and pick Hopper Homes
  3. Enter the Host Email: the same email you used to sign up for your Hopper Hosting account, and your name
  4. Click Create host. The channel is created and its edit screen opens
  5. Point your Hopper Homes listing at one of your accommodations and press Save
  6. If you don’t have a listing on Hopper Homes yet, write to support@mangobeds.com and we will set it up with you
  7. When the mapping is done, open the channel’s menu and choose Activate
  8. You’re now live on Hopper Homes!

Warnings

  • Use the same email in Mangobeds that you used to sign up on Hopper.
  • Do not delete the channel after creating it. Hopper won’t let you reconnect the same account, and you’ll need to create a brand new Hopper account with a new email.


Before you connect any channel

Currency, rates and restrictions are set once for every channel, not per OTA, and it is worth getting them right before you connect. Read the channel manager guide for that setup and for every other channel Mangobeds connects to.
