About Hostfully
Hostfully runs the operating side of a short-term rental business. A channel manager keeps listings and availability in step across Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com and sixty-odd other channels; a central calendar puts every reservation in one view; a unified inbox pulls guest messages from all of them into a single thread. Alongside that sit owner reporting, payment processing, an open API, digital guidebooks and smart-lock integrations.
The part that matters here is the direct booking site. Every booking taken there is one that keeps its OTA commission, which is exactly why operators build one — and exactly why an abandoned booking on it is worth following up. A guest comparing four properties across three tabs is interrupted easily and rarely in a hurry to come back.
CartStack tracks the booking a guest starts on your Hostfully direct booking site and follows up with the dates and the property they were looking at — by email, SMS and push — until they book or the sequence ends. Reservation and guest data syncs across the direct integration, so the follow-up carries the real detail of the stay rather than a generic reminder.
