Private vs public offers

Casabee distinguishes two types of offers: public and private. Understanding the difference allows you to direct each promo to the right audience.

Public offer

A public offer is broadcast on a large scale:

• it appears in the digital guidebook of all hosts in your geographic area;
• it's also visible in the BeeHive app to all guests present nearby;
• it's the default option: you keep the « Private » switch off when creating.

This is the right choice for the majority of promos, especially if you want to maximize your visibility with passing guests.

Private offer

A private offer is reserved for a restricted circle:

• it's visible only in the guidebook of the host with whom you have a direct partnership;
• it does not appear in BeeHive nor in the guidebooks of other hosts in the area;
• you activate the « Private (my guidebook only) » switch when creating.

How to create a private offer

1. Start the creation as explained in Create your first offer.

2. In the form, find the « Private (my guidebook only) » switch.
3. Activate it before validating.
4. Finish the creation and add the cover image.

When to use which option?

Typical use case

Imagine a restaurant in Anglet that has an exclusive partnership with a neighboring four-star hotel. It can create:

• a public offer "-15% on the lunch menu" for all guests in the area;
• a private offer "Complimentary house aperitif" reserved for guests of that specific hotel.

Automatic badges

Casabee highlights your offers with two automatic badges to boost their visibility:

• « New » — appears during the first 14 days after publication.
• « Ending soon » — appears in the last 7 days before the end date.
