# Agoda

## Prerequisites

* Active Agoda contract and YCS access
* Property details, images, and rates completed in Agoda
* Rooms and rates ready in Hostel Mate

## 1) Enable Channel Manager Mode in Agoda

1. Log in to Agoda YCS
2. Go to Settings → Property Settings → Optional Settings
3. Tick “Enable Channel Manager Mode”
4. Choose Channex as your provider and Save

## 2) Finalize in Hostel Mate

1. Open Channel Manager in Hostel Mate
2. Select Agoda and complete authentication if prompted
3. Map rooms and rates

## Verify and Test

* Push a small price change and confirm it appears in Agoda
* Disable any iCal feeds to prevent conflicts

## Troubleshooting

* Don’t see Channel Manager Mode: check your contract status or ask Agoda support
* Prices not updating: check the mapping, then run a [Full Sync](/channel-mapping-guides/full-sync.md)

## Last step: pull your existing bookings

The connection only delivers *new* bookings. The reservations already on the platform need to come across too, otherwise your other channels keep selling beds that are taken. See [Pull Future Reservations](/channel-mapping-guides/pull-future-reservations.md) — it's one click and it's the step people skip.
