Host pricing
One simple plan. No upfront payment. Deducted from your first booking - then the rest of the year is 100% profit for that listing.
$99 per year, per listing
We don't charge upfront. When you enroll in the host plan, the $99 fee is deducted from your first GapNights booking payout. If your first payout is less than $99, the remainder is deducted from the next payout until the plan is paid. After that, every dollar you earn from that listing for the rest of the year is yours - no commission, no per-booking fee.
- Daily payouts (vs weekly without plan)
- Better minimum-net control
- Cleaner automation integrations
- $99/year - deducted from first booking payout
Example: revenue potential
On average, 13.8 nights per month go wasted for many short-term rentals. Filling just 6 gap nights per month with 2 × 3-night stays could add significant income. Example (at $200/night reference rate, 2 × 3-night stays per month):
Estimated additional annual return
~$4,000+ / year
Based on 2 × 3-night stays per month × 12 months, after $99 plan deduction. Your results depend on your rate, area, and availability.
Cleaning fee guidance
We recommend setting your GapNights cleaning fee at least 10% lower than your usual (e.g. Airbnb) fee. With a 2-guest maximum and strict no-parties policy, wear and tear is limited - and the lower fee helps attract bookings while still covering your costs.
What guests pay
The guest discount curve
Discounts are calculated from your normal nightly rate (e.g. your Airbnb rate). You control the input; GapNights applies a transparent curve. The closer the night, the steeper the discount - because a last-minute empty room is the hardest to fill.

There is no separate service fee from GapNights. Unlike Airbnb, we don't add 14% on top. Guests pay the discounted nightly rate plus your cleaning fee and standard card processing (2.9% + 30c). GapNights Black members pay 0% processing - we absorb it.
