In today’s episode, we explain why Planbnb uses a commission-based pricing model and how it’s designed to align our success with yours. This isn’t just a fee structure—it’s a partnership that drives results.

There are two primary approaches to managing property fees. A fixed monthly fee gives certainty but often fails to adjust with seasonal demand or fluctuations in occupancy. Conversely, commission-based pricing means we only earn when you do. Our fee is a straightforward percentage—no upfront charges, no hidden costs—so if your property earns, we earn; if it doesn’t, we don’t  .

This model encourages us to maximize profitability. We invest in creating standout listings, implementing dynamic pricing, maintaining high cleaning standards, and delivering top-tier guest communication—all to boost your revenue. It ensures our focus remains on performance, not just ticking boxes.

There’s also emotional peace for property owners. You never pay for empty nights. In off-peak periods, commission pricing protects your cash flow. In peak season, it empowers us to push for higher rates and optimize availability. For many of our listings—from cozy apartments to luxury villas across Kavala, Nea Iraklitsa, Palaio Tsifliki, and Nea Peramos—this approach results in stronger returns throughout the year.

With the commission model, transparency is key. Every month you receive a clear performance report detailing earnings, expenses, and how our efforts translate into your income—and therefore our earnings too. You always know where value is coming from.

In essence, our commission-based pricing isn’t just about paying for a service—it’s about working together toward the common goal of occupancy, revenue, and guest happiness. When you earn more, we earn more, and that’s a powerful alignment.
