What is the Price per extra guest on Airbnb?
This functionality is available in every Airbnb listing. It is used to increase the price depending on the number of people who want to book a given offer.
How is the Airbnb night rate calculated?
On the BedBooking price grid you can see that each day has a price at the level of the Airbnb offer. This is the standard rate that the guest must pay for rentals on that day.
Additionally, you can add an Price per extra guest, which will be added depending on the number of people in a given reservation. 1. Go to the Price list section in the menu and then click the Set prices tab.
Example:
The standard rate for a four-person room on a given day is 100 euros. You set the Price per extra guest at 10 euros and choose that it should be added for each guest, when it exceeds 2 guests.
The amount that will be charged for this day of the reservation depends on the number of people in the reservation and is as follows:
- 4 guests: 100 + 10 + 10 = 120 euros
- 3 guests: 100 + 10 = 110 euros
- 2 guests: 100 euros
- 1 guest: 100 euros
