How Booking for Owners works
Booking for Owners works as a kind of digital agent. The platform shows, based on user research, homes that fit what other people are looking for. The user interested in your residence will send a reservation, subject to availability.
From that moment on, the interaction between guests and the host begins. It is important to know that the reservation is confirmed automatically, based on the values and information provided by you during registration.
Booking does not charge extra fees, so the amount entered when entering a residence on the platform is what will appear to guests. The percentage of the reservation allocated to Booking is calculated based on this value.
This all exists so that you have total control of the process. If you wish, you can easily remove a property from Booking.
