Our management package includes Online Advertising, Revenue Management, Guest Communication, Administration Management, Homeowner Interface, and Onsite Management (upon request). For more information on these services, visit Management.

Under the Management section, you can see in which countries the Direct Booker service is available. If our service is available in your country, Contact us for more details about the terms of collaboration.

The service fee depends on the property specifics, location, scope of services, and whether the Onsite Management is included. Service fee includes Property Management costs, and if the listing is being run on Direct Booker’s behalf (generally yes), it includes the fee of booking channels and their associated costs, as well as the manipulative costs of charging reservations. For more details Contact us.

No. Direct Booker charges only the agreed Service fee as a percentage of the realized reservations’ total amount.

Yes. You can manage your calendar’s availability, and we do not claim a Service fee for your or other agency reservations. Through the largest online booking channels, our goal is to Earn more for you while you Work less.

When you sign the contract with us, you will receive login details in our software for your Homeowner Interface. Homeowner Interface allows you to add your own reservations, edit availability on the calendar, have our reservations overview with its details, and all other active functionalities of the software.

All news about reservations are automatically sent via email and are also automatically recorded in your Homeowner Interface.

We are generally doing the payment of the reservations or the sales channel, depending on the sales channel policy. In that case, we pay you your corresponding net amount per individual reservation, which means that you issue an invoice to us, and not to the guest. If you were to charge for reservations, you would be notified.

Payment to the Homeowner is done regularly on a weekly basis upon receipt of money.

You will define starting rates together with your assigned Account Manager based on mutual experience and all available information. With your complete control and information, defined starting rates and booking conditions further on are being controlled by Direct Booker (both automatically and manually). Direct Booker will never make any modifications against your rules.

The contract is being signed for one year, and it is automatically extended if both sides agree.

No. We guarantee a high-quality online presentation and recognizable management of your property, which guarantees competitiveness, especially if you indulge in the market, given that all our information is based solely by current market trends.

Furthermore, we guarantee full commitment to your accommodation units, because in addition to our service being charged from achieved results, our business model has been growing for years mainly by the recommendation of satisfied renters.

The business model of paying the guaranteed amount or so-called “master lease” model is not (usually) provided by Direct Booker. Our business model is a revenue share model based on achieved results, i.e., realized reservations.

Yes, depending on the location and our local partner. ‘Turn-key’ model implies the Homeowner’s requirement for the “full service”, meaning that the Homeowner does not have further concern regarding the property management. Our ‘online’ service is always included in the collaboration, while the Onsite service that includes cleaning, maintenance, and check-in depends on the local partner.

If the property is already being advertised on major booking channels, we will take over those listings by keeping (if good) all existing reviews, and in case of contract termination, we will give them back to you. Once we take over those listings, we will standardize them to our booking conditions in the agreement with you. You can keep your private booking channels.

Generally, we claim the right on all major booking channels to achieve maximum competitiveness for your property. The property must have a high-quality identical online presentation on all major booking channels in real-time, with the same booking conditions and identical selling price at a given time, depending on each traveler’s search requirements. If the homeowner managed one of such booking channels, the entire Direct Booker sales strategy would lose meaning, and we would not be able to do the job for which you hired us.

If the listings on booking channels are advertised (and usually they are) on Direct Booker’s behalf, we pay the booking channels commission fee. Depending on the market i.e., local and/or national regulations, listings can be advertised on the Homeowners behalf, in which case the owner will pay a booking channels commission fee.

Generally, we leave your website’s management to you, but upon request, we can discuss taking over managing your website as well.

We offer Homeowners the possibility of connecting their website with our software to automate rates and availability and the possibility to generate their direct reservations, which, together with reservations from other sales channels, can automatically synchronize both in our software homeowners website.

We do not, but we can give local recommendations.

We don’t. Our job is successful short/mid-term & vacation rental booking. During the property’s construction phase, we often participate in consulting based on our professional experience regarding what works well in the market in terms of content, type, rates, and presentation of the property.

• The renting permit that satisfied local/national regulations
• Identity card of the permit holder
• The bank account details of the permit holder

We will take care of your property’s competitiveness, and you are expected to be open to market trends to get the most out of your property by using our booking tools.

If you have your own booking channels it is required to regularly update your reservations in your Homeowner interface profile.
