Migrating from MyTourist to BedFlow
Updated on 2026-10-01
At a glance
If you currently use MyTourist, you can move your database to BedFlow in under an hour, without our involvement. The wizard at bedflow.eu/migrate reads your data via the official MyTourist API. In BedFlow you will find the same entry point under Management → Import, tile MyTourist API import. See also Importing your existing data.
What do we transfer automatically?
In the Selection step, everything is switched on; untick whatever you don't want to transfer.
| Item | Exactly what |
|---|---|
| Customers / debtors | Name, address, email, phone, VAT number, language |
| Rooms + photos | Name, description, capacity, daily rates, photos |
| Products / extras | Wellness, breakfast, parking, dog, with photos |
| Invoices + original PDFs | Proformas, final invoices, credit notes and payments, with the PDF |
| Availability calendar | Rates and availability per room, history and future |
| Gift vouchers | Active and used vouchers |
If after the import you cannot find an ongoing reservation in Daily → Bookings, bring it in with a CSV export from MyTourist (see Importing your existing data), or let us know via support.
What do you need to do yourself?
- Reviews: BedFlow fetches your reviews from Booking.com and Airbnb directly via the Chat & Reviews add-on.
- Email texts: copy your texts to Management → Messages → Message templates. That takes a few minutes.
- Channels (Booking.com, Airbnb, Expedia): request your channel under Settings → Integrations, category Channels. BedFlow creates your property at the channel manager itself and prepares your rooms. See Connecting Booking.com.
The steps of the wizard
- Welcome: fill in the name of your property and choose the type (B&B, holiday home or hotel).
- API key: paste your API key and the base URL from MyTourist. See Generating an API key.
- Preview: a trial run. We count what will be transferred, so you know in advance what you will get. Nothing is migrated yet.
- Selection: everything is switched on. Untick whatever you don't want to transfer.
- Migration: the import runs in the background. You can close the window; you'll receive an email once everything is in.
- Done: you see what came in. Try it free for 30 days, no credit card required.
Parallel phase (optional)
Do you want to keep working in MyTourist for a while? In the last step you get a webhook URL. Set it up in MyTourist, and new bookings from MyTourist will then also arrive in BedFlow.
How that works: see Parallel phase with webhooks.
No risk
- Read-only: we don't change anything in your MyTourist data, we only read it.
- Your data remains yours: you download your invoices as PDF and UBL (zip) from Daily → Invoices, you share your calendar via iCal feeds, and you download your account data yourself via Settings → Privacy.
- Try it free for 30 days, no credit card required: you only pay if you continue after your trial. The monthly plans are paid per quarter, with no annual contract. You cancel yourself in My subscription & invoices; your subscription then runs until the end of the paid quarter. See Subscription & billing.
- MyTourist keeps running: you decide when to cancel MyTourist.
