If you already have your advance fee management activated, you could start to build your pricing model.

Before you start to build your pricing model, please contact our team!

It depends on if your listing's location is in EU, or outside of EU—taxes are applicable differently!

In Hostify's system, there are a couple of different pricing sections, which could help you to build your perfect pricing, depending on your needs and location.

Doesn't matter if you use templates, or you are building listing per listing pricing, those sections are fees, taxes, extras, and booking costs.

Contact our team to activate the VAT for your country, so you could add it in your pricing model!

In this section, you could apply the base price and extra guest fee.

Those fees are paid by the guest when they do the reservation—OTA or direct.

Accommodation:

Could be per night—no amount required, the price will be taken from multicalendar—MANDATORY.

You could apply your VAT in template or listing's settings, which percentage amount will be included in the price:

Accommodation based on monthly rents (at this time applicable only for direct reservations and those ones coming from your website—no OTAs supported!)

If you want to have monthly rents at midterm reservations, you could build a rule that prices from multicalendar are applicable from 1 till 29 (or custom period) nights:

Then you could add one more accommodation, which will be applicable for more than 30 nights reservations.

In fact, you could build custom prices for any amount of time—longer bookings, cheaper rent, or as your

Add your VAT.

Extra guest fee needs to be added in the Accommodation section.

In this section you could build your booking fees, that are applicable for all reservation, such as cleaning fee, management fee, linen fee etc.

For different channels, we support the common fees, you could see what fees we are support in this article—Channel fees

Fees—if they are set as online—will be added to guest payout when they make a reservation. You could add different VAT percentage if needed or not at all, this is based on your location accounting structure.

NOTE—on our system fees, please do not add LOS settings system fees. They will not be pushed to OTAs and you could lose some cleaning, management or other fees. We do not support yet short and long term fees to channels!

Here, you could build some additional charges that you want to offer to your guests.

They are not applicable to OTAs, and they are not applicable at the moment that reservation is made.

You could collect those extras via our check-in form or via the booking stay, adding them in the reservation's pricing breakdown.

Taxes are applicable at the guest payout.

If you are not from EU pls have a look at the second part of the article.

Here you could build your city tax, other touristic tax or county and VAT taxes (for not EU listings) etc.

If you add tax as a percentage, it will be calculated only to those fees, extras, and accommodation(s) that you marked as taxable:

This is the only section that is not increasing your revenue, and it is not paid by the guest.

Costs are expenses that will be added for every booking, and you could deduct from yours or owner revenue when you build a contract—See Owner statements article

Costs could be percentage, or flat amount, and you have the possibility to chose to which channel they should be applied (if no channel is selected, the cost will be added/deducted for all reservations coming):

Costs are not sent to channels, and they could be found in the Costs section in reservation's pricing breakdown.

Expect of channel commission and the transaction fee, all costs are custom, and you need to create them before applying in the listings—how to create custom ones see in Advance fee management article.

If your listings are not based in EU all VATs and your county taxes are managed from taxes section.

When we pull the account from Airbnb we get all taxes that you had set up there, but even so, for direct bookings and especially for VRBO account they should be set up.

Please, before you apply your taxes to VRBO, contact our team—we need after your settings to apply them to your channel pricing model.

If you want to apply tax for your management commission, apply default tax value in the taxes section in owner's module:

Such as VAT and other taxes percentage, when you mark some fee as taxable all taxes will be calculated on top of it.

If you have any doubts on how you need to build your taxes—contact Hostify team—every country is different with different tax system, and we need to have information from client's end to build a perfect listing's pricing module.
