Handling Failed Payments on VRBO Platform

Created by Opago Client Services, Modified on Tue, 28 May, 2024 at 4:40 PM by Opago Client Services

Objective:  To effectively manage and resolve failed payments on the VRBO platform to ensure bookings are successfully completed and guests are informed of the necessary steps to make payment.


Key Steps:

  • Upon receiving a booking with a status of "tentative" and from "VRBO" this is due to a failed payment.

  • An automated email is sent to the guest explaining the situation and providing a link for them to make the payment.

  • If the guest does not make the payment within 48 hours, the booking will be automatically cancelled. In this case, the guest will receive a cancellation message from VRBO and a message from us.

  • In most cases, guests will reach out for assistance via the VRBO platform.
     
  • Advise them to either rebook through VRBO and follow the payment process or book directly on our website and complete the payment.
