## Ways to pay less

- **About 20% off with annual billing** (Annual discount): iGMS's pricing page shows PRO at $38 a property a month billed annually against $48 monthly, and PRO+ at $56 against $69, for one property. Source: https://www.igms.com/pricing/

## Key features

- **Channel manager and multi-calendar:** Syncs Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Expedia, TripAdvisor and a direct website, with iCal for other channels and channel markups.
- **Unified inbox and AI replies:** Guest messages from every channel in one inbox, with AI-suggested replies, message templates and automated messages.
- **Cleaning and team management:** Cleaning and task management with access for cleaners and co-hosts, plus a notification center and mobile app.
- **Direct bookings:** A direct booking engine on every plan, with payments through Stripe; PRO adds a bookable website and brand management.
- **Owner portal and reports:** Reservations and monthly revenue reports and a metrics dashboard; PRO adds an owner portal and PRO+ adds owner statements and cash flow reports.
- **Pricing tools:** PRO+ includes revenue management and dynamic pricing in the US, Canada, Australia, Mexico, the UK and Spain; PriceLabs, Wheelhouse, Beyond and DPGO connect too.

## Good for

- Airbnb hosts adding Vrbo and Booking.com who want one inbox
- Seasonal hosts who would rather pay per booked night
- Managers with 10 to 20+ properties, where the per-property rate drops

## Worth knowing

- After the first property, iGMS charges only for properties booked at least once that month; listings on several sites count separately unless grouped.
- Annual plans under 10 properties are charged up front, and cancelling early switches you to monthly prices for the months used.
- Dynamic pricing on PRO+ is offered only in the US, Canada, Australia, Mexico, the UK and Spain.
- The site mentions a Free Plan pilot at $0 a month with a 4% fee on direct payments, but the pricing page does not offer it.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.6 out of 4**, graded Oct 24, 2026. iGMS syncs Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com and Expedia, gathers guest messages in one inbox with AI-suggested replies and gives cleaners and co-hosts their own access. FLEX charges $1 a booked night with a $20 minimum per property, while the owner portal needs PRO and owner statements and dynamic pricing need PRO+ at $56 a property. That dynamic pricing works in six countries only.

- **Value for money: C.** FLEX is $1 a booked night with a $20 minimum per property a month, between this category's cheaper quarter ($15.99) and middle ($25.52); a listing booked 25 nights pays $25. Owner statements need PRO+ at $56 a property billed yearly.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** A 14-day trial with no card needed. There's no free plan: the site mentions a Free Plan pilot, but the pricing page doesn't offer it.
- **Features: B.** Channel sync with Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Expedia and TripAdvisor, one inbox with AI replies, cleaning and team access, direct bookings, an owner portal, owner statements and dynamic pricing. The whole job is there, spread across three plans.
- **Ease of use: B.** iGMS rates 4.7 on the US App Store from 613 ratings, which puts it at B on our ease ladder.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, iPhone and Android, with Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Expedia, Google Vacation Rentals and pricing tools like PriceLabs connected. No desktop app, and no API is on record.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace iGMS you would be making two-way connections to Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 8 of the 10 other vacation rental tools we grade. It costs $240 a year.

- You could make: Tasks and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: Two-way connections to Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo.
- You could not: One mailbox that several people work at once.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com among them.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
