UrusPro compared with commission platforms
Commission platforms bring demand and take a percentage of every booking, so the cost rises with your sales. UrusPro is the management system: calendar, payments, monthly rentals and operations, at first listing free, then RM 10 a month for each homestay listing and RM 3 a month for each room or bed let monthly with 0% commission. Most hosts use both, not one.
Where Booking platforms that take a commission still wins
- They bring guests. We do not sell you booking traffic.
- Full OTA API connections: rates and minimum stays are pushed out, not just the calendar.
- Some hold the money and pay it to your bank after check-in.
