How does Houfy make money?
We have received this question quite a few times and here are some answers:
Houfy does not really make any money at the moment..
Some hosts have "Featured" their listings or created "Last Minute Specials". For some of these hosts this works wonders.. For more information: click here. The price is around 3-4 $ a day.
We are in the process of creating a program to charge hosts for Houfy widgets.. Also here, these are powerful tools to use for your own website. For more information: click here. This is currently free, but we will be charging for this sometime in 2022.
We are in the process of fine tuning our website creator process. This too will be a paid service.
Houfy is all about direct bookings and we are creating systems to help you with this. The only request we have is to promote Houfy as much as you can. Hosts who use our system but promote their own websites and thus not promoting Houfy should therefore pay a small fee for using the above mentioned tools.
Our mission is to give hosts and guests the option to book direct without service fees/commissions. Hopefully we can create this and fund Houfy with the above services we offer.
Houfy is a project made with a lot of love and dedication from many hosts and members of our community and hopefully with your help sharing your Houfy listing with previous guests/on business cards, on social media will continue to grow Houfy into a serious competitor to the currently known OTAs out there..

Mad grateful for your hard work and 'pay it forward' effort, attitude, and love to us hosts held captive via OTAs. I appreciate you and team! Be advised good sir and staff; know that as I ascend the learning curve, I become more and more of a fan. HOUFY ROCKS and let's do this!
The revolution will not be televised!
