What are the advertising fees charged by online booking platforms?

All online booking platforms typically charge a commission fee on the total amount paid by guests. Currently, most platforms charge a standard 15% commission. However, AirKeeper offers a more competitive rate of 7% on direct bookings. It's worth noting that Airbnb used to offer an alternative fee structure where guests paid a variable fee of 12-18%, while hosts paid a flat fee of 3.3% commission. However, this option is no longer available for professional hosts. In summary, the overall Airbnb commission under the flat 15% arrangement is generally lower compared to properties listed under the old fee model.
