Sync Pitchup with website bookings (iCal)
- How
- Pitchup and your website share one calendar. You keep Pitchup.
- What you get
- A Book now button, a chat and one calendar, set up for you
- Setup
- Usually about 30 minutes
- Pricing
- free for the Book now button, or from £12.99/month for a website we build for you + 5% commission on bookings taken through HolidayFox
A guest finds you on Pitchup yesterday and on your own website today. If the two calendars disagree, you double-book, or you look full when you're not.
I run HolidayFox, so this is not a neutral page. Keep Pitchup for new guests. The loss is the guest who knows your website but books on Pitchup because your site can't take the booking.
Connect the calendars
- 1
Add a Book now button to your website
We add it for you, or build you a website with it (Website in a Box). Guests pay by card there.
- 2
Send your free dates out
Pitchup, Airbnb and Booking.com read your HolidayFox calendar, so they don't sell nights you've already sold.
- 3
Bring their bookings in
Their bookings land in your HolidayFox calendar, so no night is sold twice.
- 4
Leave the Pitchup listing up
New guests still find you there. Returning guests book with you.
What to expect
- Not instant. The calendars check each other on a timer, not the second a booking lands.
- Not a reason to turn Pitchup off. Pitchup still finds you new guests and still charges its own commission. We don't quote their rate here.
Who this is for
- You list on Pitchup, and your website calendar is a brochure or a separate spreadsheet.
- You've had a double booking, or had to say “sorry, that night went”.
- You want website payments and an after-hours chat on the same calendar.

15 minutes with Hannah. She'll show you a live park with Pitchup connected. If Pitchup alone is enough, she'll say so.
Questions owners ask
Do I have to leave Pitchup?
No. Keep your listing. It just shares one calendar with your website.
Is this an official Pitchup connection?
It uses iCal, the standard calendar link most parks already use. We don't claim a private connection with Pitchup.
Can I keep CampManager and connect Pitchup through HolidayFox?
You can, but you don't need to. HolidayFox can be your only calendar. Running both is optional.
What does HolidayFox cost?
free for the Book now button, or from £12.99/month for a website we build for you plus 5% commission on bookings taken through HolidayFox. No joining fee. Card fees are separate: Stripe, the card-payment company, takes its standard fee (1.5% + 20p for UK cards).
