0 % platform commission

Commission-free direct booking

Let guests book and pay online directly with you — without the commission of Airbnb, Booking & co. You stay the seller, and the money goes straight to you.

Why direct booking?

Booking portals are handy for reach — but they cost: commissions eat into every booking, and the guest relationship belongs to the platform. With your own direct booking you keep the margin and the direct line to the guest. CheckInShine takes no commission for this; only your payment provider’s usual processing fees (Stripe) apply.
