Stop Paying
OTA Commission.
A real booking website for your property — guests book directly, the reservation lands on your tape chart automatically, and none of it goes through an OTA's 15-20% cut.
Same Inventory, Zero Middleman.
One shared availability system across your direct site, your tape chart, and every OTA you sync.
Your Own Booking Website
A public search-and-book flow — guests pick dates, see real room availability, and reserve directly, with no OTA in the loop.
Shared Availability, No Double-Booking
Direct bookings check the exact same availability system as your tape chart and OTA sync — a room sold anywhere is blocked everywhere.
Near-Instant Dashboard Sync
A confirmed direct booking creates a real reservation and pushes to your dashboard automatically — no manual entry, no waiting for a refresh.
Online or Pay-at-Property
Accept payment online through Cashfree at the time of booking, or let guests reserve now and pay when they arrive — your choice per booking.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Antena take a commission on direct bookings?
No. There's no platform commission on the room rate for bookings made through your own website. You only pay standard payment-gateway processing fees on online payments, the same as any online transaction — not a per-booking cut to Antena.
Can a direct booking accidentally double-book a room already sold on Booking.com or Airbnb?
No — direct bookings, OTA-synced bookings, and dashboard-created bookings all check the same room availability system. A room already held or confirmed through any channel is excluded from what a guest can book directly.
How fast does a new direct booking show up on my tape chart?
Near-instantly — typically under a second. Once payment (or a pay-at-property booking) is confirmed, the reservation is created and pushed live to your dashboard automatically; you don't need to refresh.
Do guests have to pay online, or can they pay at the property?
Both are supported. You can accept online payment via Cashfree at booking time, or let guests choose to pay on arrival — the reservation is confirmed either way.
How quickly do bookings made on OTAs like Airbnb or Booking.com block my direct booking site?
OTA bookings sync in via scheduled iCal polling rather than an instant push, so there can be a short delay (typically minutes) before an OTA-side booking is reflected as unavailable on your direct booking site — the same delay that applies to any iCal-based channel sync, not something specific to Antena.
