About ChannelRUSH

ChannelRUSH is a hospitality distribution and reservation software company that connects channel management, direct booking and central reservations for multi-property operators and PMS software providers.

Based in Denver, Colorado, ChannelRUSH has developed hospitality distribution software since 2005. It serves 500+ properties and connects them to 200+ booking channels. ChannelRUSH is not a property management system (PMS). It works alongside the PMS a property already uses.

What ChannelRUSH Builds

Six products that operators use together and PMS providers build into their own software.

  • Channel Manager

    Syncs rates, availability and reservations between the PMS and 200+ booking channels.

    Operators update inventory once instead of in every extranet.

  • Booking Engine

    Adds a commission-free booking flow to each property website.

    Guests book direct, with no commission on the booking.

  • Central Reservation System (CRS)

    Manages inventory, rates and reservations for every property in a portfolio from one system.

    Portfolio teams set rates and restrictions across properties without switching accounts.

  • Hotel Websites

    Provides hotel website templates with the Booking Engine built in.

    Properties launch a direct-booking website without a custom build.

  • Hotel CMS

    Keeps property content such as descriptions, photos and amenities in one place.

    The same content reaches every channel and the property website.

  • APIs & White Label

    Opens Channel Manager, Booking Engine and CRS functions through APIs, with white-label options.

    PMS providers offer distribution under their own brand without building each channel connection.

The support actually knows you. We looked at every major channel manager. ChannelRUSH was the only one where the team remembers our PMS, our quirks, our history. That continuity is everything.

A key part of our revenue strategy. ChannelRUSH has been a key component in helping me to maximize my hotel’s revenue and versatility.

Called on a Sunday. Got an answer in ten minutes. A ratecode mapping broke at one of our properties the night before a long weekend. The on-call engineer traced it across the portfolio and patched before I finished my coffee. No ticket system — just a human.

Dropped from 11 OTAs to 6 across all fourteen properties. Revenue went up. The integrations team walked us through which channels were actually producing per property versus the ones we were paying for out of habit. First straight answer I’ve had in this industry.

Seven properties. One dashboard. I used to log into three different systems every Monday morning. Now I see occupancy, channel mix, and rate parity for the whole group in one screen. I got my Mondays back.
