TL;DR
- A rate plan is a ready-made surcharge rule above the base price.
- Names and descriptions are maintained in the available languages, and the plan code goes into the booking link.
- A brand scope automatically covers all of its properties, including new ones.
- The system calculates the final price, so reception does not run manual calculations.
The problem: every guest group needs a different price
A BB guest asks about breakfast, a family about a cot, a couple about thermal baths. Without rate plans, a manager calculates the surcharge by hand each time, types it into the reservation and explains to reception what is included. That repetitive work causes mistakes and delays replies.
What rate plans are in Simplevent
A rate plan is a rule applied above the standard base price. You define a name and description in the available languages, a code, the adjustment type (percentage, fixed amount or amount per person per night), the value and the services included in the plan. The system calculates the final price automatically, while the standard plan based on the NoBeds base price is always available.
Ready presets instead of starting from scratch
The Breakfast Included preset immediately fills names and descriptions in Polish, English and Italian and sets a per-person-per-night surcharge. A manager can change it and save the plan in seconds. This matters especially in season, when time to introduce new packages is limited.
Scope: brands and properties
Assign a plan to an entire brand or selected apartments. Selecting a brand automatically enables all of its properties, and new properties inherit the brand scope. Managers do not have to click every apartment separately or forget a new property.
Fewer manual calculations and mistakes
When a plan is active, the final price comes from a rule rather than a manager's memory. The risk disappears that one booking gets breakfast for free while another pays twice. Reception sees a clear breakdown: base price, plan surcharge and services included in the stay.
How to roll out rate plans in minutes
Go to Settings → Rate plans, click + New plan, choose a preset or enter your own data, set the brand and property scope, then save an active plan. Repeat for further packages. You can edit or disable any plan at any time — reservation history stays unchanged.
