Isolate Airbnb Host Service Fees by Revenue Type for Commission Calculations

Problem statement: Currently, Hospitable deducts the entire Airbnb host service fee from the commissionable base, regardless of whether the fee is tied to nightly accommodation, cleaning, or pet fees. This prevents managers from calculating commission solely on net accommodation revenue.

Current workaround: Managers must manually calculate the portion of the Airbnb fee attributable to cleaning/pet fees and apply manual adjustments to each reservation or statement.

Impact: This creates a significant administrative burden as the business scales and increases the risk of calculation errors.

Proposed solution: Provide the ability to isolate and allocate Airbnb host service fees by revenue component, allowing the commissionable base to be calculated as: (Nightly accommodation revenue) minus (Airbnb fees attributable only to nightly accommodation).

Unlock: Property managers will be able to automate precise commission calculations that align with their specific management agreements without manual intervention.
