Smoobu WooCommerce Integration – Sell Vacation Rentals with Live Availability

Sell your Smoobu rentals directly from WooCommerce

Stop juggling two systems. Smoobu WooCommerce Integration connects your existing Smoobu account to WooCommerce so every apartment becomes a bookable product with live pricing, real-time availability, and automatic guest-count math — all inside the checkout your customers already trust.

What it does

• Live availability calendar on every product page, powered by the Smoobu API and cached for lightning-fast page loads.
• Instant reservation creation. When an order is paid, the plugin books the exact dates in Smoobu using the Direct/Homepage channel — no manual re-entry.
• Nightly pricing math with configurable minimum nights, maximum guests, free-guest threshold, and extra-guest fee per night.
• Two-way sync via webhooks. When something changes in Smoobu (new booking from Airbnb, Booking.com, etc.), the WooCommerce calendar clears its cache automatically so you never double-book.
• HMAC or Legacy API Key authentication — pick HMAC now to stay future-proof after Smoobu retires legacy keys on September 25, 2026.
• HPOS + Cart/Checkout Blocks compatible — declared explicitly, no admin warnings on WooCommerce 8.2 → 10.9.
• Full frontend translation panel — customise every calendar and cart string without touching PHP.
• Multi-language calendar via Flatpickr localisation.

What you configure in one place

• Smoobu API key + secret
• Direct channel ID (default: 63)
• Default check-in / check-out times
• Availability cache duration
• Calendar colour, accent colour, rounded corners — match it to your brand
• Per-product: apartment ID, min nights, max guests, free-guest count, extra-guest fee

FAQ

Do I need a Smoobu account?
Yes. This plugin connects to your existing Smoobu account through their official API.

Does it work with the WooCommerce Cart/Checkout Blocks?
Yes — compatibility is declared for both HPOS and Cart/Checkout Blocks.

HMAC or Legacy API Key — which should I choose?
HMAC. Smoobu is retiring Legacy API Keys on September 25, 2026.

Will it double-book if a guest books on Airbnb?
No. Smoobu pushes a webhook to your site the moment a channel booking arrives, clearing the availability cache instantly.

Can I translate the frontend strings?
Yes — every string on the calendar, cart, and checkout has a dedicated field in WooCommerce → Settings → Smoobu → Frontend Translations.

Does it support variable pricing per season?
Nightly pricing comes straight from Smoobu, so any seasonal rates you set there are honoured automatically.

How many sites can I use one licence on?
Depends on the tier — 1, 5, or unlimited.
