How much does MyndTrip charge Hosts?

Get the details about service fees for Hosts and guests.

For many people, hosting is a way to earn money while connecting with travelers from around the world. But how much does MyndTrip charge, and how does this impact Hosts and guests?

With a clear understanding of what MyndTrip service fees are and why we have them, you can set a pricing strategy that makes sense for you and your space.

How much does MyndTrip charge?

Most Hosts pay a flat service fee of 3% of the booking subtotal. The subtotal is your nightly price plus any optional fees you charge guests, like a cleaning fee, and doesn’t include MyndTrip fees and taxes. Guests typically pay a service fee of around 12% of the booking subtotal. 

So, if you’re charging $100 USD a night for a 3-night stay, plus $60 USD for a cleaning fee, your booking subtotal is $360 USD. The Host service fee, which is generally 3% of your booking subtotal ($10.80 USD), is deducted from your earnings, and a service fee of 14% ($50.40 USD) is charged to guests and included in the total price they pay. In this example:

  • You’d earn $349.20 USD
  • Your guest would pay $410.40 USD

MyndTrips' service fees are competitive, and we don’t charge for payment processing. This allows Hosts to keep a larger portion of their earnings.

Most Hosts pay a flat service fee of 3% of their booking subtotal.

Why does MyndTrip charge service fees?

We rely on fees to help MyndTrip run smoothly and cover the costs of products and services that help you share your space, including: 

  • 24/7 customer support
  • Marketing to guests via Google, social media, and more
  • Protection for you and your place
  • Educational resources for Hosts

Are guests aware of these fees?

Yes. Services fees, cleaning fees, and fees for extra guests and pets are shown to guests, along with local taxes, if applicable, and the total price they’ll pay.


Once a reservation is confirmed, a price breakdown in your Host reservation details and your booking confirmation email will include all applicable fees so you can clearly find:
  • Fees and taxes collected by MyndTrip
  • Any optional fees you charge (like a cleaning fee)
  • The total price your guests will pay
  • The payout you’ll receive

This means you’ll never have to search for your total price when answering questions from guests or making changes. When you know what your guests are paying, it becomes easier to manage your pricing strategy, refunds, cancellations, and reservation requests.

In the rare circumstances that large-scale events prevent or legally prohibit completion of a reservation, the Major Disruptive Events Policy (the “Policy”) may apply.
