A rate card is a list of agreed prices from a supplier - room rates, vehicle day rates, activity fees, etc. Using rate cards speeds up costing and reduces typing errors.
What you can do
- Create multiple rate cards per supplier (season, contract year, market)
- Define lines by service type (accommodation, transport, activity, …)
- Pull rates into trip costing instead of entering manually each time
How to set up a rate card
- 1
Open a supplier from the Suppliers list.
- 2
Create a rate card - name it clearly (e.g. “2026 FIT contract - USD”).
- 3
Add lines: service type, pricing model, and rate.
- 4
In the Trip Editor, when adding costing, select rates from the card where available.
Tips
- When a supplier changes prices mid-year, create a new card rather than overwriting old quotes.
- Rates on an already quoted trip stay as they were when quoted - updating the card does not change past trips.
- Line pricing models must match the service type (e.g. per room per night for hotels).
Common questions
Will updating a rate card change old trips?
No. Existing trip lines keep the rates used when they were calculated.
Who maintains rate cards?
Usually operations or contracting teams; some users have view-only access.
What if the rate card does not have my service?
Add a manual line in costing or extend the rate card.
