OTAs take up to 18% of every booking.

You pay for the property, the maintenance, the cleaning, the guest experience. Then OTAs take a cut of every reservation. On a $300/night stay, that's $50+ per night that could stay with you.

The Solution

Take bookings directly.

Your direct booking website gives guests a way to book without the OTA middleman. Same properties. Same experience. No platform fees. You keep the revenue you earned.

Every booking builds your guest directory, so you can bring them back commission-free forever.

What are the payment processing fees?

Payment processing is handled by Stripe at a flat rate of 3.5% for domestic transactions and 4.5% for international. This goes directly to Stripe, not FutureStay. There are no additional commissions from Futurestay on direct bookings.

Will my direct booking calendar sync with Airbnb?

Yes. Futurestay syncs your calendar so you never get double booked. Hosts with an Airbnb account can choose to connect directly via Airbnb's official API for automatic updates. You can also sync with Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and other platforms via iCal.

How do guests find my direct booking site?

Your site is automatically listed on Google Vacation Rentals, putting your properties in front of millions of travelers searching on Google. Beyond that, promoting your site through social media, past guest outreach, and direct marketing helps grow your direct bookings over time. Futurestay provides guides and resources to help you do all of it, and our team is always available to walk you through what works.

Is there a limit to how many properties I can list?

No hard limit, but Futurestay is designed for independent hosts and small portfolios, typically up to 10 properties. Pricing is based on your total property count. Whether you have 1 property or 10, your direct booking site can showcase all of them.

Does the website work on mobile?

Yes. All Futurestay websites are mobile-first, meaning they’re designed for phones first and then scale up for tablets and desktops. Over 60% of vacation rental searches happen on mobile, so a great mobile experience is critical for conversions.

Can I try Futurestay before committing?

Yes. Futurestay offers a 14-day free trial with full access to all features. No commitment until your trial ends.
