Every month you pay a platform, you're funding their product. Here's what that costs you.
iCal syncs every 15–60 minutes. That gap is long enough for a double booking. It's rated the number one owner complaint in every survey for three years running — and platforms aren't fixing it because it doesn't cost them anything.
Rated #1 owner complaint — 3 years runningOTAs take 3–20% per booking. On £20k revenue that's up to £4,000 gone before you touch a penny.
Airbnb owns the relationship. You can't email your own guests, build loyalty, or remarket to people who stayed before.
WordPress dashboards and desktop-first plugins weren't designed for managing a property from your phone on a Saturday.
Lodgify, Beds24, Hostaway — £20 to £200 every month, on top of OTA commissions, indefinitely.
Custom booking site, admin panel, and Stripe payments — built to your properties, not a template. Handed over in 2–4 weeks.
The code, the data, the domain. No vendor lock-in, no login credentials held by a third party. It's yours.
Share your link. Guests pick dates, pay securely, get instant confirmation. You keep the full amount minus Stripe's 1.4%.
Five steps, no jargon — here's what actually happens along the way.
We talk through your properties, your prices, and how you want it to look and feel.
Your booking site for guests, and an app for you to manage it from your phone — both in your brand.
Guests pay by card, and the money lands straight in your bank account — no one takes a cut in the middle.
On your own domain, fully secure, ready to take bookings.
Everything's yours — no licences, nothing to keep paying for unless you choose to.
From picking dates to the confirmation email — all automatic, all yours to see.
They choose dates on your site and fill in a few details — takes under a minute.
Card details are handled safely, and the money's in your account before they've packed.
Those dates are blocked everywhere else you list — Airbnb, Booking.com, the lot. No double bookings.
Their name and email are saved for you, so you can invite them back — no platform standing in the way.
Your guest gets an email straight away, and it shows up in your dashboard immediately.
Drag the sliders. See your real number. No email required.
Break even in —. Free after that.
You pay once, we build it, you own it. We don't believe in keeping you dependent on us.
All prices ex-VAT. Payment by bank transfer or card. 50% on start, 50% on delivery.
The questions a cautious partner asks before sign-off, answered straight.
Card details never touch Ownlet. Payment runs end to end through Stripe, the same processor trusted by millions of businesses. Card numbers go straight from your guest to Stripe. Neither we nor your site ever see them.
Bookings live on Google's infrastructure. Guest details sit in Firebase, Google's cloud platform: encrypted in transit and at rest, in the same data centres that run Gmail. Not on a startup's server under someone's desk.
You can take everything with you. The guest list, the booking history, the code itself. It all lives in accounts you control, and it exports whenever you want. If you ever leave us, you leave with the lot.
Takes 2 minutes. We'll come back with a straight answer on whether Ownlet is the right fit — and what it'll cost to the penny.
