For owners & property managers
You're renting your own guests
back from a platform.
They discovered your home. Now they pay a commission to a company that will never hand you the guest's email, never let you build a brand, and can change the rules on a Tuesday. Browse Stay puts your own booking site in front of that guest at the exact moment they're deciding.
No listing fee No commission, ever No PMS migration
The math, on your numbers
How much are the fees actually costing you?
Move the sliders. This is the commission leaving your business every year — and what it compounds to if nothing changes.
Sliders start at industry-typical values. Set them to your real numbers — nothing is sent anywhere.

Assumes flat rates and occupancy — no growth, no rate rises.
Illustrative model, not a forecast or a guarantee of bookings. Platform fee structures vary; enter your own numbers for a realistic figure.
The part nobody puts on a pitch deck
A business built on someone else's algorithm isn't a business. It's a tenancy.
The fees are the visible cost. The real one is fragility — every rule you don't control is a risk you can't price.
Ranking is not yours
A search-algorithm change can halve your visibility overnight, with no notice, no appeal and no one to call. You didn't do anything wrong. You just stopped being shown.
The guest list is not yours
You hosted them. You cleaned for them. You'll never email them again. Every repeat stay is a fee you pay twice for a guest you already earned.
The terms are not yours
Commission rates, cancellation policies, payout timing, refund decisions — all revisable without your consent. Your margin is a setting in someone else's dashboard.
What direct bookings actually buy
Not just margin. Ownership.
Joining takes a day
You change nothing. We do the wiring.
No new channel manager. No migration. No code on your site.
Send us your site
Your direct booking website and the platform listings that match it. If you have 40 properties, one link is enough — we read the rest.
We verify and match
Every property is checked against your platform listings by URL and title, so travellers only ever see a link that's genuinely yours. Verification is manual, once.
Travellers find you
When someone views your home — or even just searches your destination — Browse Stay surfaces your own site. They click through. You take the booking.

Why free? Because the extension is worth nothing to travellers without homes in it. Owners are the supply — you're not the product, you're the reason it works.

Owner questions
The objections, answered plainly.
Will this get my listing suspended?
Be careful and read your host agreement — this is the honest answer. Platforms restrict how hosts divert guests off-platform, and enforcement risk sits with you, not with us. Browse Stay never messages your guests, never uses platform branding, and never touches the checkout page. Many owners run direct booking sites openly and always have. If you're unsure, speak to your own advisor before applying.
Do I have to leave Airbnb?
No, and we'd advise against it. Platforms are excellent at discovery — that's what they're for. Keep them. This is about not paying a commission on the guests they've already shown you, and on the ones who come back.
How is it free? What's the real model?
The extension is worthless to travellers if no homes are in it. Owners are the supply side, so listing is free and always will be. Longer term we earn from optional paid placement and tooling for large property managers — never from a cut of your bookings.
What if my site isn't ready for direct bookings?
Then say so in the form. Browse Stay is built by Crafted With Code, who build direct booking sites for exactly this. You're under no obligation to use them, and you don't need to be a client to be listed.
Do you take my guest data?
We never see it. The traveller clicks through to your website and books with you. We don't process payments, we don't sit in the middle, and we have no access to your guest list. We only count that a click happened.
