Today, hosts and guests both typically pay service fees. As a result, you set one price but your guests pay a higher price that includes their service fee.

On 27 October, hosts who manage prices using property management or channel management software will switch to a single fee, where hosts set the price guests see and pay. Knowing what your guests pay makes it easier to price competitively.

• Split fee: Today, a 3% host fee is deducted from your price to calculate your payout.* In addition, guests pay a 14.1% to 16.5% service fee on top of your price. For example, if you set your price at £100, you earn £97 and your guests pay about £115.
• Single fee: On 27 October, a 15.5% service fee will be deducted from your price to calculate your payout. This single fee is based on Airbnb’s global average service fees, which are currently split between hosts and guests. For example, if you adjust your price to £115 to account for the single fee, you’ll earn £97.18 and your guests will pay £115.
