The problem
Commission on every OTA room. Retainers for the website person, the SEO agency and the social media freelancer. And enquiries scattered across six apps that nobody watches at 11 pm.
Every room sold through a travel site pays a cut before it pays you.
A website person, an SEO agency, a social media freelancer.
“The enquiry nobody saw is the guest who booked next door.”

OTA commission calculator
Commission paid to OTAs, per year Estimate
About ₹1,31,367 a month, or ₹360 on every room night sold.
Boost360 plans are priced in rupees in India and in US dollars everywhere else. See pricing.
Every booking that comes direct carries 0% commission. With Boost360, that money stays with your hotel.
Estimate: rooms × 365 × occupancy × average rate × OTA share × commission. Direct bookings pay only payment-gateway charges. Plan prices exclude applicable taxes.
See it for your hotelBuilt for every kind of stay
Hotels, villas, Airbnb rentals, resorts, B&Bs, guesthouses, homestays, serviced apartments and hostels. Pick yours to see how Boost360 fits it.
Hotel
Sell every room type from your own website, keep Expedia and Booking.com in step, and run the front desk on the same login.
Villa
Guests book the whole house, not a room. Show the pool, the bedrooms and the house rules, and let them add a cook or a transfer while they book.
Airbnb & rentals
Keep your Airbnb listing for discovery. Give returning guests and referrals a website of your own, where they book you directly and the booking carries no commission.
Resort
Cottages, the restaurant, the spa and the wedding lawn under one login, with packages guests can book straight from your website.
Bed & breakfast
Breakfast is why guests pick you. Put it in the rate, show the rooms and the people who run them, and answer every message from one place.
Guesthouse
Simple rooms, fair rates and guests who call before they book. Every call and message lands in one inbox, and every booking lands on one calendar.
Homestay
Guests come for the family, the food and the place. Tell that story on your own website and take bookings while you are out on the farm.
Serviced apartments
Nightly guests and month-long corporate stays on one calendar, with a rate plan for each and tax invoices the company can claim.
Hostel
Dorm beds and private rooms side by side on your own website, sold to the traveller who found you on Instagram, with the OTAs kept in step.
OTA commissions, explained
Online travel agencies bring guests, and they keep a share of every room night they sell. Here is how the commission works, what it adds up to, and how hotels keep more of it.
An online travel agency (OTA) such as Booking.com, Expedia, Agoda, Airbnb or Hotels.com lists your rooms, takes the booking and keeps a percentage of the room revenue as commission. Across the industry that share is typically 15 to 25%, and the exact rate depends on the OTA, your market, your contract and whether you pay extra for promoted placement.
The commission is deducted before the OTA pays you, or invoiced to you after the guest pays at the hotel. Either way it rarely appears as one line you look at every month, which is why most owners underestimate it.
Example. A $200 room night sold at 18% commission: $36 goes to the OTA, $164 reaches your hotel, before payment charges. Sell that room 200 nights a year through OTAs and the commission alone is $7,200.
| On each booking | Through an OTA | Direct on your site |
|---|---|---|
| Commission | 15 to 25% of room revenue | 0%. Payment-gateway charges only. |
| Who sets the rate | You, within the OTA's rules and any parity clause in your contract | You. A direct-only rate, perks or a member price are yours to decide. |
| Guest relationship | The OTA holds the booking; guest contact details are often masked | The guest books with you. Their email and phone are yours for this stay and the next. |
| Payment | Collected by the OTA and paid out on their cycle, or paid at the hotel | Paid into your own payment account at the time of booking. |
| Cancellation terms | The OTA's policy applies | Your policy applies. |
| Extras and upsells | Limited to what the OTA offers | Breakfast, transfers, late check-out, added at booking. |
| Who the guest sees | Every hotel on the results page | Only your rooms. |
Terms vary by OTA, country and contract. Check your agreement for your exact commission and parity terms.
| Room rate per night | At 15% | At 18% | At 25% |
|---|---|---|---|
| $100 | $15 | $18 | $25 |
| $150 | $22.50 | $27 | $37.50 |
| $250 | $37.50 | $45 | $62.50 |
| $400 | $60 | $72 | $100 |
| $800 | $120 | $144 | $200 |
Commission is normally calculated on the booking value the OTA sells. Multiply by your OTA room nights to see the yearly figure, or use the calculator above.
| Hotel | OTA commission a year | Boost360 plan a year |
|---|---|---|
| 10 rooms | $29,368 | Direct, ₹49,999 |
| 20 rooms | $58,736 | Direct, ₹49,999 |
| 40 rooms | $117,472 | Operate, ₹74,999 |
| 100 rooms | $293,679 | Operate Plus, ₹99,999 |
Assumes $149 average rate, 60% occupancy, half of bookings through OTAs at 18% commission. Your figures will differ; the calculator uses your own numbers. Plan prices exclude applicable taxes.
Every booking you move from an OTA to your own website keeps its commission in the hotel. The plan is a fixed yearly price, so the saving grows with every direct booking.
Typically 15 to 25% of the booking value. The rate depends on the OTA, your market and your contract, and promoted placement or visibility programmes can add to it. Your contract and your payout statements show your exact rate.
No. OTAs reach guests you would not otherwise meet. The goal is to make booking direct the cheapest and easiest option, so a larger share of bookings arrives without commission. Boost360's channel manager keeps your OTA listings in sync while your own website takes the direct bookings.
A website of your own with a booking engine, a reason to book direct such as a small saving, breakfast or flexible cancellation, a Google listing that stays current, enquiries answered quickly on WhatsApp and the phone, and missed calls followed up. Boost360 covers each of these from one login.
Parity terms vary by OTA and country, so read your agreement. Many hotels add value direct rather than cutting the public rate: breakfast, a late check-out, an upgrade when available, or a member rate for returning guests.
Usually on the booking value the OTA sells. How taxes, extras and pay-at-hotel bookings are treated differs between OTAs, so check your contract and compare it with a payout statement.
No. Plans are a fixed yearly price. Guests pay into your own payment account, so you pay only the payment gateway's charges on direct bookings.
Rooms × 365 × occupancy × average rate × share of bookings through OTAs × commission rate. The calculator on this page does the arithmetic with your own numbers and compares it with a Boost360 plan.

FAQ
Anything else, ask on the demo call. We will answer it with your own hotel on screen.
No. Most hotels start with the website and booking engine because that brings bookings in straight away. The front desk, restaurant, spa and banquets can follow a month later. Sections you have not set up are simply left off your website.
The channel manager sends your rates and availability to the OTAs, and their bookings land on the same board as your direct ones. Close a room once and it closes everywhere, so it is never sold twice. It is included from Operate and available as an add-on on Direct.
No. Guests pay into your own payment account, so you pay only the payment gateway's charges. Plans are a fixed yearly price.
The website, hosting, SSL and booking engine are in every plan. You go live on a boost360.live address and can point your own domain at it whenever you like.
Yes, from the Operate plan. Tax invoices use the right rate for each room, guest registration is filled from the guest register, and local compliance reports are ready from the same records.
A first version of your website can be live in about five minutes from your Google listing. Operate and above include GoLive Assist, where our team sets up your rooms, rates and modules with you. On Direct it is ₹7,999 one time.
You do. Your guests, bookings and content belong to your hotel, and you can export them at any time.
