Questions before you shortlist
Which guest tools publish a price?
YourWelcome lists $449.99 per property per year, or the pound and euro equivalents, on a one-year contract. Chekin lists Basic from €3.95 per property per month with a minimum of three units. Touch Stay offers a trial without a single figure in the text we extracted.
Is a guidebook a PMS?
Touch Stay and YourWelcome present information to the guest. They do not hold the reservation. Enso Connect and ChargeAutomation describe messaging and check-in and still need the PMS that stores the stay.
What is easy to miss in check-in pricing?
Chekin’s minimum of three units changes the invoice for a one-home host. Deposit transactions add 1.5% plus €0.30 on top of the subscription. Identity images also need a retention decision.
