Deduct Guest-Paid Cleaning Fees (Not Hospitable-Received Amount) in Payout Calculations

Problem Statement

• Currently, when calculating management and host payouts, Hospitable deducts the cleaning fee it receives (which may be less than what the guest paid due to fees or commissions)
• This means hosts and managers are being calculated on a reduced cleaning fee amount rather than the full amount the guest actually paid

Current Workaround

• Manually adjusting payout calculations to account for the difference between what guests pay and what Hospitable receives
• This requires extra time and creates potential for errors

Impact

• Hosts and managers receive incorrect payout amounts
• Manual adjustments create administrative burden and risk of calculation errors
• Financial discrepancies between what guests pay and what's reflected in payouts

Proposed Solution

• Update payout calculations to deduct the full cleaning fee paid by the guest (not the cleaning fee Hospitable receives after fees/commissions)
• This could be implemented as a setting or default behavior change in the payout calculation logic

Unlock

• Accurate payout calculations that reflect the actual cleaning fee collected from guests
• Elimination of manual adjustments and associated errors
• Transparent and fair payout amounts for hosts and managers
