Internet Booking Engine (IBE) for Your Website
With the Casona Booking Engine, you can accept reservations and bookings directly through your website. All reservations and bookings are commission-free!
Activate the Booking Engine in Casona
If the booking engine isn’t activated for you yet, please send us a message via the support link at the bottom of the Manager area. We’ll then make the necessary settings for you right away.
Configuring the Booking Engine
You can customize the booking engine with a variety of options to create the best possible booking experience for your guests. You’ll find the settings and preview in the menu under Reservations > Settings. Please be sure to provide the address listed in your legal notice and privacy policy. Both will then appear as links in the booking engine.
With the redirect feature to your website, you can specify a URL to which the guest will be redirected after a successful booking.
Customizing Fonts and Colors
You can freely customize the booking engine’s design. This requires basic programming knowledge of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).
Specify Your Own Source
You have the option to specify the source of the reservation, for example, to better track social media campaigns. Add the following to the booking engine’s URL:
?referrer=MEIN-CODE
After a successful reservation through the booking engine, you’ll find this information in the reservation: Source: Web (MY-CODE)
Please note that the code should not contain any special characters other than hyphens. The complete address for the booking engine would then look like this, for example:
https://booking.casona.com/de/booking/hotels/ABC123?referrer=MEIN-CODE
User Tracking in the Booking Engine
The custom extension can be used to integrate tracking programs. This allows you to use variable data, such as the total amount of the booking. If you or your programmer have any specific questions about its use, please feel free to contact our support team via the link at the bottom of the screen in the Manager area.
