Guesty Quote Line Item Update – Important Change

1 min read

Guesty has recently updated how they provide pricing details in quotes — but only for a few accounts so far.

For most account, the rent (fareAccommodationAdjusted) value includes following costs:

  • Weekly or monthly stay discounts
  • Markups (rate multipliers)
  • Extra guest fees

Our system is designed to show each of these line items separately. With that in mind, we were reverse-calculating those items from the total rent to display a detailed pricing breakdown.

Rent = guesty provided rent + weekly/monthly stay discount – markup – extra guest fee

❗ What Changed

For selected accounts, Guesty has started sending these components as separate line items rather than including them in the rent. That means the rent now only reflects the base amount, and the following are listed independently:

  • Weekly / Monthly discount
  • Markup (Rate Multiplier)
  • Extra Guest Fee

This change caused incorrect calculations in our system when we assumed the rent still included everything. Quotes that involved discounts, markups, or extra guest fees showed inaccurate values until we identified the issue.

✅ Example of the New Quote Breakdown:

{
  "title": "Weekly / Monthly discount",
  "amount": -13010.60,
  "currency": "USD",
  "normalType": "AFWD"
},
{
  "title": "Markup",
  "amount": 4266.00,
  "currency": "USD",
  "normalType": "MAR"
},
{
  "title": "Extra guest fee",
  "amount": 800.00,
  "currency": "USD",
  "normalType": "EGF"
}

Old Quote Response:

In following rent, guesty includes the markup (10%)

{
    "title": "Accommodation fare",
    "amount": 16493.4,
    "currency": "USD",
    "type": "ACCOMMODATION_FARE",
    "normalType": "AF"
}

🛠 Our Solution

Since many older accounts still include everything in the rent, we’ve developed two separate parsers to handle both formats. We’ve also added a setting to control whether the new format is active for a specific account, ensuring accurate parsing regardless of the version Guesty uses.
