Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers before you make a decision.
We charge a percentage of booking revenue — no fixed monthly fees and no lock-in contracts.
Our pricing is performance-aligned. If your revenue doesn’t grow, neither does our fee.
Launch is ideal for owners who want to stay hands-on with guests but need professional setup, pricing and systems.
Manage is for owners who want the day-to-day fully handled — including guest communication, cleaning coordination and operational management.
Maximise is designed for owners who want a more active growth strategy — including marketing campaigns, performance reporting and direct booking optimisation.
Many owners start with Manage and upgrade when they’re ready to scale performance.
No.
We operate on a flexible agreement with 30 days’ notice.
If it’s not working for you, you’re free to move on.
That’s absolutely fine.
We can work with your existing cleaning team, or connect you with trusted partners if needed.
We manage listings across major platforms including Airbnb, Booking.com and VRBO, as well as your own direct booking website.
We use dynamic pricing technology, booking data analysis and platform optimisation to improve occupancy and nightly rates.
For Maximise clients, we also implement marketing campaigns and direct booking strategies to grow repeat and off-platform bookings.
Yes.
Many owners begin with Launch or Manage and upgrade as their property grows.
