Last changelog news of the year! The tech team and the full Rental Ninja team wish you a happy year ending and a nice entry to 2024!

Features

Stripe Connect

We are thrilled to announce a partnership with Stripe to give you the power of collecting funds from your bookings automatically and updating the booking payment status. Guests will have the payment gateway available through their guests portal, they will pay any remaining amount and you will get a booking payment received notification! More information about it in this article.

Accounting

Accounting based on check-out! You can now create statements and account bookings based on check-out rather than on check-in date!

Timeline events

We have included a bunch of new timeline events. There are quite a few to let you track everything that happens in your business. Filter them by the filter in the timeline section! Remember you can also visit the timeline for each booking, which is very useful to know how the booking has evolved:

Reports

We have added a new report to the Control Center: Channel Commissions! You can now know the commissions per OTA!

Improvements

Guests Module

We have improved the Guests Module settings section. Setup is organized in a better way and we also give you some help through a "Recommended Settings" section, which will help you get started with a basic setup easily.

Accounting

Now Recipient's Recurrent Strategies can be chosen by rental! You can add a recurring item such as "Netflix subscription" one time per rental in a Statement.

Security

We have improved security in the way we connect to our partners, such as Stripe or all the Channel Managers we are connected to.

Navigation

You can now navigate easily to any Rental Ninja website view by the following shortcut: Command + K, or Control + K on Windows, will let you type the name of a view and navigate directly to it! There is another shortcut to hide the main menu: Command + S or Control + S on Windows. We will be adding more shortcuts to make your life easier!

Registration flow

We have improved the registration flow so you can register to Rental Ninja by making a difference between the number of rentals you have, and the ones you wish to manage through Rental Ninja.

Precheck-in form

Now guests can ask their co-travelers to fill in the form. This way each can fill their own information.

Bug Fixing

Summarizing here some of the bugs we fixed, not all, to avoid too much reading for you. We just put the most relevant ones:

  • We have fixed a bug in the password recovery system.
  • We have removed damage deposits that were appearing for Airbnb bookings on Rentals United accounts.
  • The 30-day dates filter did not pick the current day.
  • Solved an issue with the Can Manage Bookings Permission: it was not applied, instead we were using the Accounting permission.
  • Client creation: you couldn't create a new client without adding his email. That must be possible.
  • We have fixed some UI/UX navigation problems in the accounting statistics.
