Can CAMASYS Manage Dynamic Pricing Based on Season, Utilization, and Reservation Source?

Pricing in the rental and mobility industry is no longer a static activity. Successful operators use a combination of seasonal pricing, utilization-based adjustments, and channel-specific strategies to maximize revenue and stay competitive.

The question many operators ask is:
“Can CAMASYS automatically adjust prices not only by season and fleet load, but also by the source of the reservation?”

The answer is yes — CAMASYS supports flexible, rules-based pricing, including dynamic pricing by source, allowing rental businesses to react to market conditions in real time.

 

1. Seasonal Pricing Built Into the System

CAMASYS allows operators to set predefined pricing periods based on:

  • high season
  • low season
  • holiday seasons
  • business vs. tourism peaks
  • regional demand events

Each season can have its own price list, discounts, extras, and conditions.

Result: Prices change automatically without staff intervention.

 

2. Utilization-Based Dynamic Pricing

For operators who want pricing tied to real-time fleet performance, CAMASYS supports dynamic adjustments based on:

  • current vehicle availability
  • branch-level utilization
  • class-level utilization
  • forecasted demand
  • overbooking thresholds

Example:

If the SUV category hits 85% utilization, CAMASYS can automatically increase rates by a set percentage.

This helps maximize yield during high demand and protect margins.

 

3. Pricing Based on Reservation Source (Channel Pricing)

This is where CAMASYS becomes a powerful revenue management tool.
The system can differentiate pricing based on where the booking comes from, such as:

 

✔ Direct Website

You can offer the best price or exclusive packages to direct customers.

 

✔ Customer Self-Service Portal

Corporate clients may get negotiated or discounted rates.

 

✔ OTA / Broker / Marketplace

You can apply adjusted prices to compensate for commission fees.

 

✔ Internal Branch Bookings

Staff can use internal pricing not visible to customers.

 

✔ API-connected partners

Travel agencies, hotel partners, or B2B platforms can have custom pricing structures.

This level of granularity is essential for controlling profitability across multiple sales channels.

 

4. Custom Conditions and Smart Pricing Rules

CAMASYS lets operators combine multiple factors into one pricing strategy:

  • season
  • vehicle category
  • pickup branch
  • reservation length
  • booking source
  • discount programs
  • utilization thresholds
  • customer segment (corporate, retail, loyalty)

Pricing rules can be stacked, layered, and automated.

This allows operators to replicate airline-style revenue management directly inside CAMASYS.

 

5. Real-Time Price Updates

Whenever a pricing rule is triggered, CAMASYS updates pricing instantly across:

  • the website booking engine
  • the customer portal
  • partner integrations
  • internal branch tools

No manual calculations. No delays.
Customers always see the correct rate for their channel and season.

 

6. Reporting and Analytics for Better Pricing Decisions

CAMASYS provides insights that help refine pricing strategies:

  • booking volume by channel
  • revenue per source
  • conversion rate of each channel
  • profit per vehicle category
  • seasonal demand patterns
  • price sensitivity of customers

These analytics help operators identify where to raise or lower prices to balance demand and supply.

 

7. Real-Life Example

A mobility operator used CAMASYS’s dynamic pricing to handle a busy summer season:

  • Website customers received better direct prices
  • Brokers were assigned higher base rates to cover commissions
  • High-demand categories automatically increased pricing at 80% utilization
  • Corporate clients kept fixed contract prices

 

The result:

  • 18% higher overall revenue
  • Better control over fleet distribution
  • Reduced underpricing during peak weekends

 

Conclusion

Yes — CAMASYS can actively manage pricing based on seasonality, fleet utilization, and reservation source.
With flexible pricing rules, channel segmentation, and real-time automation, operators gain full control over revenue and profitability across all sales channels.

This transforms pricing from a manual task into a smart, dynamic system that reacts instantly to demand and market conditions.
