    We’re a cohost and have been waiting for this to complete before we begin using the new VRBO integration and before we begin accepting direct bookings.

    Automatic payout splitting between hosts and cohosts

    Problem Statement:

    • Currently, Hospitable doesn't support splitting payouts between a primary host and cohosts
    • All payouts go to a single account, requiring manual payments to cohosts
    • This creates administrative burden for tax reporting (1099s) and cash flow management

    Current Workaround:

    • All payouts go to the primary host's account
    • Primary host manually pays cohosts after receiving payouts
    • Primary host handles 1099 tax reporting for cohost payments

    Impact:

    • Additional administrative work tracking and processing cohost payments
    • Manual tax reporting responsibilities for the primary host
    • Potential for payment errors or delays in cohost compensation

    Proposed Solution:

    • Add a feature to automatically split payouts between the primary host and cohosts
    • Allow hosts to configure payout percentages or fixed amounts for each cohost
    • Automate the distribution of funds based on the configured split

    Unlock:

    • Streamlined payout management for hosts with cohosts
    • Reduced administrative burden and manual payment processing
    • Automated tax reporting support for cohost payments
