Booking payments

Plan availability: premium
Quick look: Settings > Payments

You can let guests pay for their booking. The payments that need to be done depend on your payment schedule. The payment schedule can be set up in your booking form. You can let the guest pay directly online or on arrival. Or a combination of both. The money that guests pay to book your rental unit will be received by you directly. We are not in between and we don't charge any commissions.

The amount that a guest pays is based on three things:

The rates that you've configured for the rental.
The additional fees from the booking form.
The taxes that may apply.
