The Host Co + OwnerRez Integration

HostCo is partnered with OwnerRez to help you easily offer services and products directly to your guests. This allows you to create a seamless upsell experience while increasing your revenue and improving guest satisfaction.

What This Feature Does

With HostCo, you can create a digital storefront connected to your rentals where guests can purchase add-ons such as:

• Local services like massages or private chefs
• Automated fees such as late checkouts or pet fees
• On-site upgrades like firewood or hot tub heating
• Custom services or products you choose to offer

You can also connect to a curated list of vetted vendors or add your own offerings.

HostCo handles support, inventory management, notifications, and payouts, so everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.

How Guest Requests Work

Guests can browse your store and submit requests for services at any time.

• Payments are held for up to 7 days
• You receive the request and can approve or decline it
• Once approved, the payment is processed and you receive your payout

This gives you full control while keeping the guest experience simple and convenient.

Earnings and Fees

• You can keep between 93% and 100% of each sale depending on your plan
• A guest convenience fee is added at checkout to cover processing costs
• Many hosts generate significant additional revenue through upsells
