RioBNB · for hosts
RioBNB builds a personal itinerary for every booking: arrival, the neighbourhood, restaurants, what’s on during the stay and tours picked for each guest’s interests, one tap to book. This is the list of tours it uses in Rio today.
Address, check-in, check-out, wi-fi and house rules. A few minutes, and only once.
Guest name and dates. The itinerary comes with that month’s weather, what’s on that week and what’s near your address.
Through Airbnb messages or WhatsApp, in Portuguese or English. The questions stop coming.
What about commission? Every tour or ticket booked through the itinerary earns affiliate commission. On the free plan it goes to RioBNB, which is what pays for the service; on the Host plan, 50% is yours with nothing to set up; on the Manager plan, you use your own affiliate codes and keep 100%.
