Pricing factors, what changes your bill
Your CheckinGuide bill scales with the number of active properties, not guests or bookings. Optional add-ons like Stripe Identity verification are billed at cost and only when used. Currency, VAT and payment provider fees are set by your Stripe account.
- Number of active properties on your plan
- Optional Stripe Identity checks (£1.50 per verified ID)
- Smart ID checks (£0.35 per verified ID)
- Stripe payment processing fees (guest-side, not ours)
Timelines, how quickly you're live
Most hosts publish their first branded guest guide within 15 minutes of signing up. Full onboarding, including ID checks, security-deposit rules and OTA sync, typically takes under an hour per property, or you can import an existing PDF/Notion guide in one click.
- First guide published: under 15 minutes
- ID verification live: same day
- Airbnb / Booking.com sync: within 24 hours
- Import from PDF, Notion or Google Docs: one click
