Commission or Subscription? Choosing the Right Holiday Letting Payment Plan for You
Every holiday letting owner is different and wants different things from their property - meaning they need something different from their holiday letting agent.
Some owners have a busy booking calendar and simply want somewhere to advertise their property. Others would rather have someone manage the enquiries and bookings for them, leaving them free to enjoy the benefits of owning a holiday home without the hassle of day-to-day administration.
At Redpoll Holiday Lettings, we believe you should be able to choose the option that works best for you. That's why we offer two simple ways to list your property.
Nothing to pay until January 2027
As a special introductory offer, we’re giving holiday letting owners the opportunity to advertise and take holiday bookings for free. There’s nothing to pay until January 2027. Take advantage of this offer by listing your property today.
From January 2027, the plans and prices will be as follows:
Our Commission Plan
We understand that not everyone wants to deal with guest enquiries, booking administration and payment management, which is where our commission option comes in.
It's completely free to list your property.
There's no upfront cost to advertise with Redpoll Holiday Lettings. Instead, we simply charge 10% commission on confirmed bookings, and we'll handle the booking process for you.
This can be a great option if you're new to holiday letting, have a busy lifestyle, or simply prefer someone else to manage the administration.
For comparison, many of the larger online booking websites charge significantly higher commission rates - often around 20%, which makes Redpoll a more cost-effective alternative while still offering a personal service.
Our Subscription Plan
If you like being in control of your own bookings, our annual subscription could be the ideal choice.
For one fixed payment, your property is listed on Redpoll Holiday Lettings for 12 months, giving potential guests the opportunity to find and book your holiday home.
There are no commission charges on your bookings, so once you've paid your annual subscription, every booking is yours to keep.
Whether you own a caravan, cottage, lodge, apartment or campsite, there's a subscription option to suit your property.
Which option is right for you?
A subscription may suit you if:
- You receive regular bookings
- You're happy managing your own diary and guest communication
- You prefer a fixed annual cost.
A commission plan may suit you if:
- You're just starting out
- You'd rather not pay an upfront fee
- You'd like help managing bookings
- You only want to pay when your property is booked.
On either plan, each subsequent property after your first is listed at just 30% of our standard rate, offering brilliant value for holiday lettings business owners.
Giving owners a choice
At Redpoll, we know there isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to holiday letting.
Some owners want complete control, while others value the convenience of having someone handle the booking process on their behalf.
That's why we've built Redpoll Holiday Lettings around flexibility, giving you the freedom to choose the option that fits your property, your lifestyle and the way you want to run your holiday let. We can help whether you’re simply letting out your own personal caravan, or whether you’ve got multiple cottages available. From campsite to shepherd's hut, caravan to house - we’ve got a plan that’ll suit your circumstances.
If you're not sure which plan would suit you best, just get in touch. We're always happy to have a conversation and help you decide.
