The commission is based on the property type and location

We list your home across Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo/Stays and more to reach both city-break visitors and festival crowds. Edinburgh surges during the Fringe (August) and Hogmanay, so we tune pricing by day of week and event window, manage lead times, and fill late gaps, boosting visibility and occupancy while protecting your rates.
With an ADR of about £213 and 73% average occupancy, well-run Edinburgh listings typically generate about £56,848 in annual booking revenue. August is strongest during the Fringe Festival, and around Hogmanay/New Year, Six Nations rugby and major conferences, ADR typically runs about 70% higher. Use event-aware pricing and early calendar opening to capture peaks, then ease rules mid-week to keep calendars moving outside headline periods.
