Can I charge any extra fees?
Yes, you can set extra fees for things like additional guests, accepting pets, providing beach towels or supplying groceries on arrival. You can also add one-off fees to existing bookings. Here’s what you need to do:Adding extra fees
You can set up additional fees so they’re automatically added to every quote and every booking request.
- Go to Taxes and Fees
- Enter a name and amount for the fee you’d like to charge
- Select Save
To add another, simply select Add another fee and follow the same steps.
Important: Any fee entered will only be applied once per booking. If you want to enter a fee that's calculated per person and night, follow the steps for Charging more for larger groups below.
Adding a one-off fee
If you’d like to add a one-off fee to an existing booking – for example, if a guest wants to bring a pet with them and you want to charge more – you can do this easily from your dashboard.
If you haven’t yet accepted the booking request:
- Go to your Inbox and find the relevant booking request
- Select Edit booking request on the right-hand side of the page
- Select Add a fee
- Enter a name and amount for the fee you’d like to charge
- Select Save
Charging more for larger groups
If you’d like to add a fee for larger groups staying at your rental (or a different fee that’s calculated per person and night), you can do this in the Rates section of your account. Simply follow these steps:
- Go to Rates and select Edit on the rate you want to add the extra fee to
- Select Advanced settings and check the Charge more for larger groups box
- Enter the price and minimum number of guests this fee will apply to
- Select Save
Don’t forget to add the fee to all of your seasonal rates, too (if needed).
