Why Pay
OTA Fees?
Every time you book on Airbnb, Booking.com, or MakeMyTrip, you pay a hidden 12–17% platform fee on top of the stay price. On Bunkout, you book directly. No markup. No surprise at checkout.
How OTA Platforms Make Money
When you book on a large travel platform, they charge fees on both sides of the transaction — from you AND from the property owner.
Guest Service Fee
Added to your total at checkout — typically 12–17% of the stay price. You only see it at the payment step.
Host/Property Fee
The property also pays the platform 3–15% of the booking value. This gets indirectly baked into the listed price.
Bunkout: Zero Guest Fees
The price you see is the price you pay. We work directly with property owners and pass the savings on to you.
