Airbnb Plans Pricing

Airbnb does not sell API access on a per-call rate card; APIs are exposed to approved Software Partners (channel managers, property-management systems) and partners earn revenue inside the marketplace's host/guest service-fee model. Airbnb monetizes the booking transaction itself — most hosts pay a 3% Host-only split fee or a single Host-only fee around 14-16% (15.5% typical), with guests paying 14.1%-16.5%. Experiences and Services have separate take rates.

Airbnb Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Airbnb on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.

It defines 5 plans, covering enterprise and usage-based tiers, with named plans including Software Partner Program, Host Fee — Split (Homes), Host Fee — Host-Only (Homes), Services Fee, Experiences Fee.

Tagged areas include Hospitality, Travel, Short-Term Rental, Marketplace, and Take Rate.
