Just got this from my Vrbo account manager.

Notice this is for non software connected users.

Big News! Vrbo just launched our Newest Promotion - MOBILE DEALS.

This is a targeted promotion to offer a deal to travelers booking on the go with their mobile device, which has been increasingly popular in 2025!

Go live with the new promo filter today to boost visibility and beat the competition!

Promo Details:

Mobile: Offer a 10% discount to anyone booking using the mobile app. (Discount % can be customized)

Why now: Only non-software connected partners can access this promo—giving you a competitive edge

Let’s get your listing in front of more travelers—while demand is peaking.

More travelers than ever before are booking in the mobile app, so this aligns with what demand is doing in 2025!

    I bet that the majority of their guests use their phones to book anyway. I don’t want to discount 10% for that. It’s just another way to try to lure hosts into further discounts, and punish those who don’t do that by putting them farther down the list of results. 
    I am really disappointed with the VRBO website and its usability. I booked a vacation on VRBO as a guest a few months ago.  I keep getting emails to complete the booking when I already did!  That and other annoyances there as a guest are part of the reason why they’re losing market share to Airbnb. 


     VRBO sucks. They want the hosts to constantly take a haircut but they're not interested in discounting their rates to encourage more bookings.


     They all suck.
