Short stayAirbnb and the channels, one calendarAll six, side by side →Lodgify is built around the direct booking — a vacation-rental website builder with a booking engine and a channel manager, priced in flat USD tiers with no booking fees. Below, the seven things every property business needs; every verdict on their side names its source and the day we checked it.
The direct-booking website is genuinely theirs — a host who wants a branded, commission-free booking site gets a good one.
The moment the estate needs what it does not carry: a short-stay platform — no estate gatehouse; and short-stay software — no hotel front desk, no night audit. Those are not gaps in their product — they are a different product, and an operator who runs more than one kind often needs both.
The same seven rows appear on all ten of these pages, in the same order, argued the same way.
who came in, what they drove, what they carried — the guard’s book
a short-stay platform — no estate gatehouse
Who came in, what they drove, what they carried. An estate has a gate, and the gate keeps a book; software that runs the estate keeps it too.
check-in, the folio, the night’s close — a hotel’s real desk
short-stay software — no hotel front desk, no night audit
Check-in, the folio, the night’s close. A property that lets by the night needs a desk, not a calendar with a price on it.
Airbnb, Booking.com and Agoda in and out, so a door is never sold twice
a channel manager across Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com and more
your own page that takes a booking without a commission
its whole point — a branded booking website with no booking fees on direct reservations
a dollar price you can plan on, never a slice of your rent
flat USD tiers from about $14 a month, with no booking fees on any plan
your name on every page and paper, not ours
a fully branded booking website is the product
apartments, buildings, HOAs, beds, hotels and short stay in one set of books
short-stay only — no long-term ledger, no dues, no HOA, no bed space
The long lets next to the short stays, the dues next to the beds — one book for the whole business, not one tool per kind of door.
Clear them to see the seven again.
Of the seven above, these are the ones that end the conversation here rather than merely shading it.

We did, on Lodgify’s own public pages, on the date printed in each cell. Our deploy gate goes red when a date passes 90 days, so a claim is re-checked or it comes down. Seen otherwise? Tell us at /support and we will print it.
Yes. Premises reads any calendar that speaks iCal and answers with its own feed, exports every book as a spreadsheet, and nothing in it locks a door. Most estates retire the second tool within a quarter; nothing forces it.
Nothing, up to fifty properties, on every plan. You send the export and a person on our side loads it — doors, people, balances, dates — before your first login. Over fifty, or coming off software we have not seen, we scope it first and give you the date before you commit.
No card, no contract, every module open. On day 181 you choose month by month or the yearly term, or you export your books and leave with them.
Free under five listings for as long as the Free plan is offered. Never a percentage of what you collect, on any channel, including your own door.
