With Guesty Screen & Protect you will be able to receive compensation for damages caused by guests during their stay without confronting them. You can cover the added billing cost for Screen & Protect in the following ways.
- Damage wavier fee: Create an additional fee for it and make sure you turn on the Sync fee to channels toggle so it is automatically added to reservations.
- Add it to the accommodation fare in Guesty: Use a pricing application or Guesty's Revenue Management to increase the listing's base price (weekday or weekend) so that the added cost is embodied in the accommodation fare.
- Add it to the cleaning fee in Guesty: This will have a smaller impact on pricing and ranking compared to adding the added cost to the accommodation fare, explained above.
- Ask the owner to "opt-in" to the Screen & Protect plan: Invoice the owner for the fee monthly, when you are billed by Guesty.
-
Hybrid approach: Combine any or all of the above approaches to spread out the added cost across the additional fee, accommodation fare, cleaning fee, and/or owner. For example, you can cover it in the following way:
- The owner pays $19.
- You pay $20, which you choose to cover with a $5 additional fee and by adding $15 to the cleaning fee.
Tip:
In the Reservations page, view a list of all reservations that are protected, according to their eligibility. At the end of the month, Guesty will only bill you for these reservations.
