How does this work?

1

We use each OTA's real cost structure: Booking.com charges its commission (typically 15%) plus a 1.3% payments fee, and invoices both with 21% VAT withheld from your payout. Airbnb charges its 15% host service fee, also with VAT. Real effective cost: 18-20%.

2

With Zobooq, you get a professional website with a built-in booking engine. Direct bookings through your site have 0% commission.

3

The more bookings you convert to direct, the more money stays in your pocket. The savings shown above are per year, per property.
