6. Money in Bank
Whether you manage a single Airbnb or a global portfolio of 500 properties, we have a financial model built for your scale.
1. Native Upsells (Recommended for Best Guest Experience)
No Stripe account? No problem. Use our native payment gateway to start selling immediately. We handle the processing and deposit funds directly into your bank account. Our fee structure rewards scale:
Guide & Concierge Plan: 4.5% Checkout Fee
Pro & Agency Plans: 1.5% Checkout Fee
2. “Bring Your Own Stripe” (For Pro Hosts & Agencies)
The traditional SaaS model penalizes scale. We reward it. On all our Pro and Enterprise Agency plans, you can plug in your own Stripe Connect API keys.
3. Host Direct
On-site? Too easy, Guest clicks upsells and sends email and you take payment on site.
