An abbreviation for 'Yield Control System', YCS is the back-office system (partner extranet) for you to maintain your property profile on Agoda.com. It includes rates and availability, photos and descriptions, room and rate plan setup, payment options and policies, reservation details, reviews, and more.
Login details
Your Agoda can only be retrieved or reset by Agoda Support. This is for account security and the protection of personal information.
When listing with Agoda, your property layout determines which Agoda platform to use. This makes sure your property is marketed to the correct group of guests that use their different sites.
Properties offering:
- one unit listed as exclusive-use accommodation, should list on Agoda Homes (Agoda Home does not support multiple rooms/units)
- two or more rooms/units, should list on Agoda YCS.
