The Problem

What OTAs really cost you.

It's not just the host fee. Between what they charge you and what they charge your guests, OTAs take a massive cut of every single booking.

Trust & Safety

What the Guest Protection Fee covers.

Every direct booking includes a flat Guest Protection Fee — a small platform fee paid by the guest at checkout, not from your revenue. It covers background screening and property damage insurance so you don't have to.

🛡️

ID Verification

Every guest submits a government-issued ID before their booking is confirmed.

🔍

Background Screening

Flat-fee automated checks against criminal records, sex offender registries, and eviction history.

🏠

Property Damage Insurance

Flat-fee coverage up to $1M for accidental property damage during a guest's stay.

How It Works

  • 1A flat Guest Protection Fee appears as a line item at checkout
  • 2Covers ID verification, background screening, and property damage insurance
  • 3You never pay for it — it comes from the guest, not your revenue

What This Means For You

$0 cost to you. The guest pays, not you. Your subscription price is your only cost.

Real protection, not a policy. Unlike OTA guarantees that change overnight, this is funded coverage.

Guests book with confidence. Knowing they're verified and covered makes direct booking feel safe.

Questions

Frequently asked.

We never charge hosts per-booking fees. Your subscription price is all you pay. Guests pay a small Guest Protection Fee at checkout that covers ID verification, background screening, and property damage coverage. That fee goes to our trust & safety partners — not to you. The only other processing cost is standard Stripe fees (~2.9% + 30¢) which go directly to Stripe.
You choose a plan that fits. If you don't subscribe, your booking pages go offline but your data stays safe. No credit card is required to start the trial.
Absolutely. Upgrade or downgrade whenever you need. Changes take effect on your next billing cycle.
WifiPass captures guest email and phone from your property WiFi — just like StayFi, which charges $15-19/mo per property. It's included in every BeckonSites plan at no extra cost.
BeckonSites replaces your direct booking website builder, WiFi marketing tool, and basic email marketing. You'll still need your PMS for channel management and a payment processor (Stripe, which we integrate with).
No. Some competitors charge $1,500–$4,000 for setup. We charge $0. Your direct booking page can be live within minutes.
