UrusPro compared with relying on Airbnb alone
Airbnb is a marketing channel, not an operating system. It is good at finding new guests and takes commission for doing so. UrusPro is where you run your units, commission-free direct payments, monthly rentals and daily work. Most operators use both.
Where Airbnb only still wins
- Existing demand. New guests you do not have to find yourself.
- Third-party trust and protection for guests who do not know you yet.
- No monthly cost. You pay only when there is a booking.
Job by job
| Job | Airbnb only | UrusPro |
|---|---|---|
| Commission | A percentage taken on every booking, forever. | Direct bookings through your own site carry no commission. Just one monthly fee. |
| Long-term rentals | Not built for it. No rent schedules, deposits or tenancy agreements. | Full monthly rentals with bills, deposits, agreements and receipts. |
| Repeat guests | The platform owns the relationship. They rebook there, and commission is paid again. | Your own guest list, and your own branded booking site for them to come back to. |
| Units off the platform | Monthly rental units and corporate units are not included at all. | All units in one calendar, whatever the type of stay. |
| Operations | None. Cleaning and maintenance are handled elsewhere. | Tasks, vendors, costs and status in the same system. |
Frequently asked questions
No, and most operators do not. Airbnb stays as a channel; calendars sync so units are not double booked, and direct bookings come through your own site with no commission.
