Property Owner Commission Plan

Step 1 : Create an account

Step 2: Our commission plan

Redpoll offers a highly competitive 90% commission structure, allowing property owners to retain the vast majority of their booking revenue while benefiting from Redpoll’s marketing, platform features, and customer reach. We believe in providing a fair and transparent partnership model that helps owners maximise their earnings while keeping fees simple and straightforward.

Commission payments via Stripe

Redpoll uses Stripe to securely manage commission payments to property owners and partners.

To receive commission payments, we will connect you to a Stripe payout account for you to disclose payout bank details directly to Stripe. Redpoll does not store or have access to your bank account information.

Commission payment terms

By continuing, you agree that:

Redpoll may use Stripe Connect to manage commission payments.
Stripe may request identity verification or additional information to comply with financial regulations.
Commission payments are subject to Redpoll’s commission and payment policies.
Redpoll reserves the right to review, delay, withhold, or reverse commission payments where fraud, disputes, refunds, chargebacks, policy breaches, or compliance concerns arise.
