Read the article →BNBVIO delivers a complete direct-booking system in one package: your own domain and business email with automations, a custom booking website, an iOS app, an Android app, and a back-end dashboard where you upload photos, manage listings and sync calendars. We also integrate payments, set up guest email automations, and optimise the site for Google and AI search engines.
The complete package is a one-time USD 2,499. The first 10 customers receive a USD 500 launch discount, bringing it to USD 1,999. There is no commission and no percentage taken from your bookings.
Because ratings don't reduce commission. Even top-rated properties pay 10–15% on every reservation to Booking.com, Airbnb, Agoda and similar platforms, which for a typical UAE operator adds up to USD 30,000–50,000 a year or more. The platform also keeps the guest relationship, so you cannot market directly to returning guests. BNBVIO gives you your own channel where every booking is commission-free and every guest is yours.
Yes, where your channel manager allows it. We connect your website and apps to your existing calendar (iCal or API-based, depending on your provider) so availability stays consistent across Airbnb, Booking.com and your direct channel, avoiding double bookings.
Yes. The back-end dashboard lets you add or edit listings, upload photos, update pricing and availability, and view bookings without needing a developer.
