****Automatic Double Booking Protection****

If you list your boats on both Getmyboat and Boatsetter, your calendars are now automatically kept in sync. When a booking is confirmed on either platform, availability is blocked on the other in real time — no manual updates needed.

This feature is already active on your account. There is nothing to set up.

****How it works****

*   A booking is confirmed on Getmyboat or Boatsetter.
*   Within seconds, that date and time is automatically blocked on the other platform.
*   If a renter cancels, the calendar unblocks on both platforms almost instantly.
*   All existing confirmed bookings have already been added to your calendar..

****What this means for your business****

*   No more manual calendar management between platforms.
*   No risk of double-booking the same boat on the same day.
*   Your listings stay fully active on both platforms, so you capture every booking opportunity.

****Frequently asked questions****

1.  ****Is there any additional fee for this feature?**** 

No. Automatic Double Booking Protection is included at no extra cost.

2.  ****Does this sync my Google Calendar or other reservation systems?**** 

Not at this time. The feature is built specifically to sync bookings between your Getmyboat and Boatsetter accounts.

3.  ****Does it sync my pricing too?**** 

No, pricing is managed separately on each platform. Since Getmyboat and Boatsetter now have aligned fees, we recommend setting matching prices on both to keep things consistent for renters.

4.  ****Is it syncing my full availability, or just confirmed bookings?**** 

It blocks time for confirmed bookings only. It is not a full availability sync — dates you have manually blocked on one platform will not automatically carry over to the other.

5.  ****How quickly does the calendar update after a booking is confirmed?**** 

The block appears on the other platform within seconds of a booking being confirmed.

6.  ****How quickly does it unblock after a cancellation?**** 

Almost instantly — typically within a few seconds.

8.  ****I don't want this feature on one of my boats. Can I turn it off?**** 

Not directly in your account settings. Reach out to us [here](https://boatsetter.kustomer.help/contact/contact-us-rybdP8n5i) and we can remove the feature for specific listings.

9.  ****I'm listed on one platform but not both. Does this apply to me?****
