Description

Airbnb’s latest update is shaking things up for hosts and property managers: the Airbnb Host Fee Change. PMS-connected hosts are moving to a 15.5% host-only fee, and the math on how to set your markup has caused plenty of confusion.

In this episode, we clear things up once and for all. You’ll learn why the correct PMS markup isn’t 15.5% but 18.34%, how to recalculate your nightly rates and cleaning fees, and what this shift means for your payouts, competitiveness, and channel mix.
