At DPGO, we\u2019re all about innovation. Whether it\u2019s storming onto the market and offering better insights for less money, or diving deeper into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airbnb.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Airbnb<\/a> data than ever before, we love to mix things up!\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>One of the things we\u2019re most proud of is our Gap Night Stay technology. It\u2019s iconic, honestly. We put our blood, sweat, and tears into this. Well, not <em>actually<\/em>, cause that\u2019s yucky, but we did spend a healthy number of hours and burn through a more than healthy amount of coffee doing it.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Why do we love it so much? That\u2019s sort of like asking which of our children we love the most\u2026 OBVIOUSLY, the smartest one. Jokes aside, we love all of our innovations equally because they are all equally awesome.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><strong>What is Gap Night Stay Technology?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In short, Gap Night Stay technology is a funky bit of software that we developed to allow some flexibility in your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostaway.com\/airbnb-minimum-nights\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">minimum stay settings<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Gap Night Stay technology will automatically lower your minimum night stay requirements for periods shorter than the specified minimum requirement in order to fill a gap in your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/vacation-rental-pricing-strategy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">calendar<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Let\u2019s put this in a real-life scenario. If John sets his minimum night stay requirement on DPGO as 4 days, but he enables Gap Night Stay technology, DPGO will configure his calendar to allow someone to book a three-night stay, if there is a three-night gap in his calendar.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The main purpose of this setting is to <a href=\"https:\/\/optimizemyairbnb.com\/airbnb-calendar-strategy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">manage your listing<\/a> and facilitate a complete calendar of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/how-to-get-more-airbnb-bookings-with-better-pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bookings<\/a>. This technology does not interfere with your normal booking process, as it only lowers your minimum night stay requirements if there is a gap in your calendar. If there are no gaps, the technology will not make any changes to your minimum night requirements.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"734\" class=\"wp-image-2095\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/More-About-DPGO-\u2014-6-1024x734.png\" alt=\"DPGO minimum stays\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/More-About-DPGO-\u2014-6-1024x734.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/More-About-DPGO-\u2014-6-300x215.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/More-About-DPGO-\u2014-6-768x550.png 768w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/More-About-DPGO-\u2014-6-175x125.png 175w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/More-About-DPGO-\u2014-6-450x322.png 450w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/More-About-DPGO-\u2014-6.png 1146w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><strong>Does That Mean I Have to Allow Single Night Stays?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>No, enabling Gap Night Stay technology does not mean that you will have to accept single-night stays. In fact, we already developed a plan for this concern because we created a subsetting that allows hosts to enable Gap Night Stay technology, but disable single night stays.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><strong>The Specifics<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We understand that you may have some questions about this technology, so we wanted to get into the specifics and break down the details so you can fully grasp how useful this technology can be.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>First, let\u2019s examine which intervals Gap Night Stay technology applies. Generally speaking, this technology only becomes relevant when your calendar has gaps in it. If those gaps are above your minimum night stay requirement, Gap Night Stay technology will do nothing. Our aim is still to secure you the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2022\/02\/17\/airbnb-ceo-brian-chesky-on-covid-impact-on-long-term-bookings-.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">longest bookings possible<\/a>, and this technology is simply a backup plan to ensure those nights get sold. If your minimum night stay settings are blocking a potential booking,\u00a0this technology comes into play.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>DPGO allows our users to set date-specific minimum night stay requirements. Gap Night Stay functionality does not apply to date-specific minimum night stays. Rather, it only applies to your global minimum night stay requirement.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Before we explain how our algorithm prioritizes values, we must first explain how DPGO\u2019s minimum night stay requirements work. We offer three modes of minimum night stay settings: general, time-based rules, and \u2018day of the week\u2019 minimum stays. Each one gives our algorithm more detail on how you want to run your minimum stay requirements.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you have manually set minimum stay requirements directly on your calendar, then these will be given the highest priority. To our software, time-based rules have a higher priority than \u2018day of the week\u2019 minimum stays.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"684\" height=\"1024\" class=\"wp-image-2787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Response-Rate-4-684x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Notebook\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Response-Rate-4-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Response-Rate-4-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Response-Rate-4-768x1150.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Response-Rate-4-1026x1536.jpg 1026w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Response-Rate-4-175x262.jpg 175w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Response-Rate-4-450x674.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Response-Rate-4-1170x1752.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Response-Rate-4.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 684px) 100vw, 684px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><strong>In Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The beauty of our Gap Night Stay technology is that it\u2019s <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/dynamic-pricing-myths\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">smart<\/a><\/em>. It gives our pricing engine the freedom to optimize with its own deep-learning capabilities. Oh, you didn\u2019t know that DPGO had deep learning capabilities? Well, it does and honestly, it\u2019s one of the most amazing parts of our software!\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>By including deep learning in our software development, we ensure that our pricing recommendations get better and better with time. So, with every confirmed booking optimized by a DPGO dynamic rate, our pricing tool learns the sorts of prices that your listing can handle. Of course, it generates this information at the start when you register, but it adds more detail.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/app\/en\/account\/register\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=website&amp;utm_campaign=sign_up_banner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"495\" class=\"wp-image-3503\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1200x580-For-Blog-2-1024x495.png\" alt=\"Dynamic Pricing Tool for Airbnb Hosts\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1200x580-For-Blog-2-1024x495.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1200x580-For-Blog-2-300x145.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1200x580-For-Blog-2-768x371.png 768w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1200x580-For-Blog-2-175x85.png 175w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1200x580-For-Blog-2-450x218.png 450w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1200x580-For-Blog-2-1170x566.png 1170w, https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1200x580-For-Blog-2.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><strong>Get Started with DPGO<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To benefit from Gap Night Stay technology and more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpgo.com\/go\/dynamic-pricing-myths\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dynamic pricing<\/a> innovations from DPGO, create your free account today and enjoy the first 30-days on us!
