Find out what platform fees actually cost you.

Tell us a few things about your property. We'll estimate the booking-platform fees you're paying this year, and show what going direct with your repeat guests would be worth.

Your property

Best guesses are fine. Adjust any number at any time.

Per property. What you charge per night, peak and off-peak averaged.

A$

Per property, including weekends and same-day turnovers.

/ 365

Friends, family and returning guests: anyone who already has your phone number.

%

Roughly 8 to 20% all-in depending on the platform and fee structure, counting host fees, guest fees and payment processing. Adjust if you know your actual rate.

Going direct could save you

A$3,804/year

Platform fees you pay now
A$10,260
Fees on bookings that could have been direct
A$4,104
Brevity Bookings (A$25/mo)
A$300
Of your A$10,260 in estimated platform fees, A$4,104 lands on guests who would rebook you direct. That's money paid to a platform to introduce people who already have your phone number.
Going direct with those guests, after the A$300/year subscription, keeps A$3,804 a year in your pocket. That's A$19,020 over five years: yours to keep, or to share with your repeat guests as better rates.

Numbers update live as you type, and your inputs stay in your browser. Nothing you type into the calculator is sent to us. (Joining the waitlist below is different: that form stores what you submit, as described in our Privacy Policy.) The default fee rate sits inside the publicly reported 8 to 20% all-in range across major short-stay booking platforms. Edit the rate above if you know your specific number. Five-year figures are simply the annual figure times five, assuming today's prices hold: no assumed growth, no inflation.
