Cloudbeds Booking Engine is the booking engine bundled inside the Cloudbeds PMS subscription. The platform inherits the same UX sensibility and integration footprint as the broader Cloudbeds stack.

Target segment

Properties already running or considering Cloudbeds PMS where booking engine, channel manager and payments come as one subscription bundle.

Pricing

Pricing is included in the Cloudbeds PMS subscription (no separate fee). Cloudbeds PMS entry tier starts around USD 15 per room per month.

Strengths

Bundled with Cloudbeds PMS

No separate booking engine subscription required.

Native rate parity sync

Rates flow from PMS to booking engine in real time without integration overhead.

Cloudbeds Payments integration

Native payment processing inside the checkout flow.

Trade-offs

Only available with Cloudbeds PMS

Not a standalone product; the property must commit to Cloudbeds PMS to use the engine.

Less customisation than specialists

For deep checkout customisation, SiteMinder or Profitroom offer more knobs.

When to choose

Choose Cloudbeds Booking Engine when the property is on Cloudbeds PMS and wants minimum vendor count.

When to avoid

Avoid when the property is on a non-Cloudbeds PMS or wants a standalone booking engine independent of PMS choice.

Common integrations

Cloudbeds PMS, Cloudbeds Distribution, Cloudbeds Payments, Google Hotel Ads, Trivago.
