Booking.com's commission is the widest range of any major platform on this site, 10% to 25% depending on your property type, location, and the specific agreement you've negotiated. There's no single published rate the way Airbnb or Etsy have, it genuinely varies host to host.
Unlike Airbnb, Booking.com doesn't charge guests a separate service fee, the commission comes entirely from the host side. Most independent hosts report rates in the 15-18% range, with larger hotel chains sometimes negotiating lower.
If you use Payments by Booking.com to handle guest payments, that adds roughly 1.1-3.1% on top of the commission, varying by payment method and region. Hosts who collect payment themselves outside the platform skip this fee entirely.
This is an opt-in visibility boost, similar in spirit to Etsy's Offsite Ads or eBay's Promoted Listings. It's not a standard fee everyone pays, it's an optional trade of margin for more bookings.
Fee rates are kept current but vary significantly by individual host agreement, property type, and region. Always confirm your exact rate in your Booking.com extranet before making pricing decisions. This tool provides estimates only and isn't affiliated with or endorsed by Booking.com.
