Google vacation rentals seem to be the future. It would be great to be integrated for direct bookings.

Uplisting and Google Vacation Rentals are live 🥳
Big news. Big opportunity. Bookings already pouring in.
You can be one of the very few direct listed properties on Google Search, Maps and Travel. Very exciting!
You will receive an email and in-app message with more info.

Quick update on the Google Vacation rental integration. We are progressing well and are in the 'develop and test the integration' phase. This can take up to 8 weeks. After this is certification which takes up to 4 weeks, then we go live.
We will keep you up to date with progress over the next few weeks.

Vince Breslin: Hi Vince, Any update on going live maybe by late February to early March? I have multiple listings, so is it better for me to start a Google Vacation Rentals account and start adding my listings and all the details then hide them and then be able to integrate once you are live or should I wait for Uplisting and not anticipate by pre-work because you will publish our listings over to Google Vacation Rentals. It takes time for me to add listings as you know and to get them just right so do want to hit the ground running when vacation rentals go live. Will it be an XML connection or ICal?

Lance Hendrix: we're really just waiting on Google to get this integration live now. We have fully integrated and have been going through the testing phase. I would hope this integration will be released within the next couple of weeks but depends on Google for now.
There is no value in adding your own listings as they can only be added via an integration partner like Uplisting. Uplisting will publish your listings to Google Vacation Rentals.
The integration is API and XML - ie. realtime. The bookings are processed via the Uplisting powered direct booking engine and payments will be processed via your connected Stripe account.
Here are a couple of guides on Google Vacation Rentals:

It would be even better if we could get connected with google hotel ads and not just vacation rentals for those of us that have a small hotel.
