What it costs for 25 unitsYes

What the price is based on

Priced per property on a subscription, with the plan fee rising as you add properties and the two cheapest plans capped by property count.

Pricing varies based on the number of properties you manage and the features included.

What it costs for 25 unitsYes

Rent payment fees

Guest payments taken through a gateway carry Lodgify's 1% transaction fee plus the gateway's own processing fee, while cash or bank transfers you record manually carry none.

A transaction fee of 1% applies to payments your guests make online through a payment gateway such as Stripe or PayPal. Your gateway also charges its…

What it costs for 25 unitsNo

Minimum units or minimum fee

The cheapest plan is sold for a single property, and the vendor pitches itself from one property upwards, so no block of units or monthly floor is imposed.

Lodgify is designed to help all types of short-term rental businesses grow, whether you have one property or 30+.

lodgify.com/pricingChecked

What it costs for 25 unitsYes

Unit caps

Basic is restricted to one property and Starter to two, so a third property forces the Professional plan; Professional and Ultimate then price by property count.

This plan is only available for 1 property or less

What it costs for 25 unitsYes

Promotion and regular price

yearly shown monthly: the plan cards open on the Yearly control, so the headline per-month figures are the discounted annual rate, not the month-to-month price.

Setup or onboarding fee

Lodgify states plainly that joining carries no setup fee and that onboarding with a product expert is included rather than billed.

No, there’s no setup fee when joining Lodgify. Free onboarding is included.

Finding a tenantYes

Listing your vacancy

Two-way API sync with Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com on every plan, iCal for other sites, and Google Vacation Rentals only from Professional up.

Leases and rentPartly

Rent collected online

Guests pay by card through a gateway such as Stripe, and payout speed is the gateway's; only Lodgify's own US-only processing states daily payouts.

Your vacation rental booking system connects with trusted payment gateways so you can accept cards, bank transfers or manual payments.

Autopay and reminders

Lodgify can charge a guest's card automatically and chase overdue balances, but automated charging is absent from the Basic plan.

Charge guests automatically when needed.

Security deposits

A guest's card is pre-authorised before arrival so the deposit is frozen and repairs deducted; this is absent from Basic and Starter.

Leases and rentPartly

Rent paid in cash

Cash and bank payments can be recorded by hand from Professional upwards, but no retail cash-payment network is offered for guests to pay in a shop.

Record cash or bank payments manually.

Leases and rentPartly

Rent receipts

Guests can be sent proper invoices for what they paid, but the invoicing feature sits on the most expensive plan only.

Send clear, professional invoices to guests.

MaintenancePartly

Maintenance requests

Maintenance visits can be raised as tasks with photo proof and inspection, but only on Ultimate and only by you, not by a guest self-service request.

Need a maintenance visit or a last-minute restock? Create individual tasks for specific dates and assign them to the right team member instantly.

lodgify.com/task-managementChecked

MaintenancePartly

Work orders to contractors

Tasks go to a named person or a role such as any cleaner with push notifications and sign-off, but paying that contractor from the task is not documented.

Assign tasks to a specific team member or a role like 'any cleaner.' Team members get notified instantly through the mobile app.

lodgify.com/task-managementChecked

MaintenancePartly

Move-in and move-out inspections

Checklists can require mandatory photo uploads and your approval before a turnover is signed off, but it is cleaning inspection, not a move-in/move-out report shared with the occupant.

Add step-by-step checklists to each task. Make photo uploads mandatory so you can see exactly what was done without being on-site.

The booksPartly

Income and expenses by property

Booking revenue, fees, expenses and payouts are pulled into statements you can export as PDF, with per-property reporting, but no accountant-ready ledger export is described.

Statements pull booking revenue, fees, expenses and payouts directly from Lodgify. No copy-pasting from spreadsheets or chasing down numbers.

Bank accounts from the vendor

Managing for other ownersPartly

Owner portal and statements

Owner statements are generated, scheduled monthly or quarterly and exported or emailed as PDF, but owners get documents rather than a login of their own.

Export the report as a PDF or send statements straight from Lodgify. Owners get their reports without you opening your email.

Managing for other ownersPartly

Management fees

Owner payouts, fees and expenses are tracked and reported on Ultimate, but the vendor does not document calculating a management commission rate for you.

Track payouts and reports for property owners.

Team users

Role-based access for team members is an Ultimate-only feature, and the vendor publishes no per-user price, so staff seats are not separately metered.

Give team members the right access levels.
