# Partner Portal

## What is the purpose of the Partner Portal?

To allow you to:

* Explore the growing list of properties available on Channels Plus
* Review content for Channels Plus properties to assess if they fit your brand
* Create and manage deals - promotional offers to access better rates from participating properties
* Review reservations and billing
* Retrieve and manage your API keys

### My Properties

* Filters: You can use these filters to narrow your search down to specific properties that you are looking for
* Block Property: You can use this option to stop a property from showing up in your API search results
* View Details: Click this button to see more information about the property

Use the property detail page to explore all media available for this property. A full list of property amenities is also available for you to review. This page also provides you with all the contact information you would need for this property.

### Deals

Deals are promotional offers that provide access to better rates from participating properties. For the full details of the Deals feature and how to use it, please refer to the documentation [here](/channels-plus-api/additional-resources/commercial/deals.md).
