Pricing
KeepItDirect pricing
Short answer: $149 one-time setup for every plan, plus monthly hosting based on how many properties you list. Free preview before you pay. No booking commission and no per-booking fee. Guests pay you directly, and KeepItDirect adds nothing to card processing fees (Stripe still charges its own fees if you use card payments).
Plans
Every plan includes the same setup: a free preview first, then $149 one-time to build your site(s). Monthly hosting is $19 for the first property plus $5 for each additional property (up to 5). For 6 or more properties, contact us.

Common pricing questions
What is the total cost? Setup, monthly, and any per booking fees?
$149 one-time setup for every plan, plus monthly hosting: $19 for 1 property, $24 for 2, $29 for 3, $34 for 4, or $39 for 5. There is no per-booking fee and no booking commission: KeepItDirect takes no cut of your nightly rate, cleaning fee, or any booking. We build a free preview first. If you have already paid, the $149 is refundable if you ask in writing within 7 days, and the monthly plan can be canceled anytime by email. For 6 or more properties, contact us.
Is Stripe required?
No. Stripe is optional and only needed if you want guests to pay by card. Without Stripe, your site does not offer card payments and guests pay you directly with the methods you list, such as Venmo, Zelle, Cash App, PayPal, or cash. If you want card payments, you connect your own Stripe account and card payments go straight into it.
Can I use Helcim (or another card processor) instead of Stripe?
Not today. Stripe is the only card processor the booking system connects to. You can still list other ways to pay, like Venmo, Zelle, Cash App, PayPal or cash, and guests pay you directly.
Does KeepItDirect add anything to my payment processing fees?
No. KeepItDirect never processes or holds guest payments and takes no application fee. Card payments run through your own Stripe account, and Stripe charges its standard processing fees to your account. KeepItDirect adds nothing on top. Venmo, Zelle, Cash App, PayPal and cash go straight from the guest to you.
