# MG Bedbank

Learn how to connect and map MG, including how to request the connection via the MG extranet.

## Prerequisites

* MG Bedbank account and extranet access
* Rooms and rates ready in Hostel Mate

## 1) Enable the Connection

1. Open the MG extranet
2. Go to the Channel Manager section
3. Select Channex as your connectivity partner

## 2) Finalize in Hostel Mate

1. Open Channel Manager in Hostel Mate
2. Choose MG Bedbank and authenticate if required
3. Map rooms and rate plans

## Verify and Test

* Push a small price change and confirm it appears in MG Bedbank

## 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.
