Guests are charged upfront through Swimply's secure payment system powered by Stripe. Your payout is directly deposited after each booking, minus our service fee. Hosts who sign up on Swimply after July 12, 2023 earn between 70% - 85% of the total booking price (excluding guest fees) from each reservation.
Of course, most of our hosts are.
Ultimately, the choice is yours, but once you list, our Host Care Team is readily available to help assist with pricing your space and hand over any other golden tips we may have. You can always start a bit lower and once you see what people are willing to pay, raise your rate.
Not at all, we give you the option to provide all the info your guests will need to help themselves. Only confirmed guests will see this info.
Providing a restroom is entirely optional! Most hosts do provide a restroom as it allows them to charge more per hour and accept longer reservations. Some hosts happen to have a restroom outside specifically for the space use which is cool, and some provide instructions for guests to use a side/back door to allow minimal access to the home.
All Swimply Hosts are automatically covered by our up to $1,000,000 protection guarantee and $10,000 in property damage protection (On us!). Learn more here.
