Clavanza is new. The first properties are going live now. Hosts who join from the start get a lower rate, fixed until 31.12.2027.

We cannot promise you today how many bookings will come through Clavanza. But there is no risk and no cost for you: no subscription fee, no setup costs, no minimum term. Commission is only due when a guest books.

You give nothing up. Airbnb, Booking.com or your own flyer keep running, and the calendars sync via iCal.

All questions for hosts →
What does Clavanza cost?

There's no subscription fee and no setup cost. We keep a commission of 9.9 % on each booking - so only when you've actually rented out.

When guests pay through Clavanza, the commission is deducted directly from the payment; nothing is invoiced to you afterwards. With cash payment, our claim to the commission arises when you confirm the cash payment. It is either offset against the next booking through Clavanza or, if there is no transaction through Clavanza for 3 months, invoiced. The rate that applies is always the one in force at the time of the booking concerned.

Payment processing fees are included: whether your guest pays by card, TWINT or Klarna makes no difference to your amount - we cover the difference.

VAT is not included but would be added: we are currently not registered for VAT and therefore don't charge any. Should that change, it will be added at the statutory rate, and you'll be told beforehand. VAT would only be charged on the commission and, at the current rate of 8.1 %, would add 0.8 % (so 10.7 % instead of 9.9 %). If you are registered for VAT yourself, you deduct it as input tax.

What is the early-bird rate for hosts?

Every property that is live on Clavanza by 31.03.2027 pays only 7.9 % commission instead of 9.9 % for all its bookings up to 31.12.2027, also all-in. A property that only goes live after the deadline pays the standard rate. It is our thank-you to everyone who is with us from the start.

The booking date counts: a booking received by 31.12.2027 runs at the early-bird rate, even if the stay is later.

You do not need to apply. As soon as your listing is approved, the rate applies automatically, and your overview in the admin area shows until when.

From 01.01.2028, the standard rate of 9.9 % applies to everyone.

Do Airbnb and Booking.com keep running?

Yes. Airbnb, Booking.com or your own flyer: you keep listing wherever you like, and the calendars sync via iCal.

When do I get my money?

The amount is in your own Stripe account from the moment the payment arrives and belongs to you - you can see it there straight away. Only the transfer to your bank account is delayed, and it comes in two steps.

We pay out the accommodation share minus commission as soon as your own cancellation scale no longer provides for a refund of the accommodation price. With the standard scale, that's 13 days before arrival. The cleaning fee remains refundable until the end and follows on the day of arrival.

The reason isn't mistrust but the time span: in seasonal business, months lie between payment and stay, and a cancellation or chargeback can occur in the meantime. Both are debited to your Stripe account, because that's where the payment was made. If the balance is already in your bank account, a negative balance arises - which is exactly what the staggering prevents.

If you set a more generous cancellation period, the first step moves back accordingly. So you control the timing yourself, through your cancellation terms.

Can I stop again?

Yes, at any time at the end of the current month. You still handle bookings that are already confirmed; after that, we take your listing offline. Details are in the terms and conditions.

Go live by 31.03.2027 and the early-bird rate is yours.
