Project Description
We run iBooked.online: direct booking websites for short-term rental and accommodation operators across APAC. Our customers already run their business on a PMS (Guesty, Hostaway, Hostfully, etc.), and we use Calry as a universal layer that talks to all of them.
We need a WordPress plugin that connects MotoPress Hotel Booking <-> Calry, so:
Bookings made on a customer's iBooked site flow out to their PMS
Rates, availability, photos, and property descriptions flow back in from the PMS
The whole thing stays in sync without our customers thinking about it
That's the job. Have a look at:
Calry's API docs: https://docs.calry.app/docs/introduction
MotoPress Hotel Booking: https://motopress.com/products/hotel-booking/ (REST API documented on their site)
A few things worth knowing:
If you've built this kind of integration before and you'd architect it differently, tell us why: we'd rather hear it now than three weeks in.
This isn't a one-off. If it goes well there is ongoing work (extensions, new PMS integrations as Calry adds them, maintenance).
Budget is open. Bid what the work is worth and we'll talk.
A note on bids:
We get a lot of copy-paste applications and AI-generated fluff on these posts. To filter that out, shortlisted applicants will be asked to send a short video (2 to 3 minutes) walking us through how you'd approach this: not a sales pitch, just you talking through what you've read and how you'd think about building it. If you can't be bothered making the video, we can't be bothered hiring you.
To apply:
Answer this in your first message (one short paragraph: not a CV dump):
Have you built a WordPress plugin that syncs with a third-party API before? Tell us about one: what broke, and what you'd do differently next time.
After that you can go straight to:
