In order to appear at the right time, it is necessary to think ahead, it is best to start preparing for the next season at the end of the last one and invest the necessary capital to get the highest occupancy rate throughout the season. The sooner you start, the fewer potential guests you lose.

Most foreign tourists come through online rental apartment services. The most famous such online services are Booking.com and AirBnB.

Frequently asked questions

Does the RedCode Landlord System really sync with Booking.com and AirBnB so I avoid double bookings?
Yes. All your reservation channels feed into one shared calendar, so when a date gets booked on Booking.com it closes on AirBnB and on your own site at the same time. That is the whole point of the system, to stop two guests turning up for the same apartment on the same night.
How does the eVisitor guest registration work in the system?
Guest registration is built in, so when a guest checks in you enter their details once and the system handles the eVisitor reporting for you. You are not copying data into a separate government portal by hand for every arrival, which is usually the most tedious part of running apartments in Croatia.
Is this just a website for my apartments or something more?
It is more than a website. The public side shows your apartments, prices, galleries, special offers and a booking form, but behind it you get the management side: calendar, reservations, guest records, invoices with fiscalization, receipts and expenses, and newsletters. The site and the back office are one connected system, not two separate tools.
Can I handle invoices and fiscalization through the system?
Yes. You can create, view and print invoices, see invoice statistics, and the system supports invoice fiscalization, so the legally required reporting happens as part of your normal billing instead of being a separate task.
How do guests pay, and can I take payments online?
The system supports PayPal, card payments and bank transfers, so guests can pay online when they book and you can see at a glance which reservations are paid and which are still open.
I rent to foreign tourists. Can the apartments be shown in other languages?
Yes. You can enter translations yourself for other languages, including titles and descriptions, so foreign guests read your apartment listings in their own language without you needing a developer every time you want to add or change text.
