Everything you need to own your bookings.

Your own booking site

A branded page on its own subdomain, with live availability, your photos, and card payments via Stripe.

Calendar sync

Pull in your other channels by iCal so a booking anywhere blocks the dates everywhere — never double-book.

Your prices & rules

Set your nightly rates, seasonal pricing, minimum stays, changeover days and cancellation policy. Reusable rate & rule plans you drag onto each property.

Guest CRM

Every direct guest captured automatically — stays, spend, contact — with marketing consent recorded properly.

Social promo kit

Generate branded image cards from your photos and mint shareable discount codes to post on your own socials. No list needed.

Grow your list

A one-tap subscribe link turns your followers into a marketing list you own — double opt-in, fully consented.

Email & SMS campaigns

Reach opted-in past guests with offers and returning-guest discounts, with per-recipient codes and results tracking.

Paid straight to you

Guests pay into your own Stripe account — deposit at booking, balance auto-charged before arrival. Commission taken at source.

You're in control

Keep your OTA listings for discovery; use Staybothy for the direct bookings. Leave any time — nothing's locked in.

Questions, answered.

Do I have to leave the big booking platforms?

No. Keep your existing listings for discovery — Staybothy syncs their calendars so a booking anywhere blocks the dates everywhere. Use Staybothy to take the bookings that come through your own channels and repeat guests, direct.

What does it cost?

Start free: a branded booking page, calendar sync and your first 20 booked nights, no card needed. Paid plans run from £9/mo with low single-figure commission (1–4%) only on the bookings you take direct. All prices are ex-VAT.

Who owns the guest relationship?

You do. The booking contract is between the guest and your business — Staybothy is the software, not the merchant. The guest's email, the repeat business and your marketing list are all yours.

How do guests pay me?

Through your own Stripe account (Stripe Connect). Guests pay a deposit at booking and the balance is auto-charged before arrival, straight to you, with a small platform commission taken at source on paid plans.

Can I market to my past guests?

Yes — guests opt in when they book, and you can run email and SMS campaigns to them (Pro and up). You can also post shareable discount codes and ready-made promo images to your own social, and a one-tap subscribe link grows a marketing list you own.

What if I want to leave?

Cancel any time. Your booking page winds down gracefully and nothing is deleted — you can reactivate whenever you like.

Your place. Your guests. Your terms.
