Frequently Asked Questions

What is EasyBookSTR?

EasyBookSTR is a direct booking app built specifically for short-term rental hosts who want to accept commission-free bookings without relying on Airbnb or VRBO. It provides a branded booking experience — either embedded into your existing website or as a standalone booking page — with live calendar sync and Stripe payment processing built in.

Do I need my own website to use EasyBookSTR?

No — EasyBookSTR offers a Standalone Pro plan that gives you a dedicated booking page for each of your properties, so you can accept direct bookings without a website at all. If you already have a website on WordPress, Squarespace, Weebly, or another platform, you can embed the booking widget directly into your existing site.

How much does EasyBookSTR cost?

EasyBookSTR offers three plans: DiBSTR Insider ($10/mo for up to 10 properties, exclusively for DiBSTR Booking Revolution Course students), Smart Host ($25/mo for up to 7 properties, embeddable on any website), and Standalone Pro ($50/mo for up to 5 properties with a dedicated booking page per property). All plans include a free trial, and you can add 5 additional properties for $50/mo at any tier.

How does EasyBookSTR handle payments?

EasyBookSTR processes all guest payments securely through Stripe. You stay in control of your pricing, cancellation policy, and payout timing — EasyBookSTR takes no platform commission from your bookings, though standard Stripe processing fees apply.

Does EasyBookSTR sync with Airbnb and VRBO calendars?

Yes — EasyBookSTR syncs your calendar in real time across your booking channels so you never have to worry about double bookings. When a guest books through your direct booking page or widget, your Airbnb and VRBO calendars update automatically, keeping everything in one place.

Will using a direct booking app hurt my Airbnb ranking?

No — having a direct booking channel does not affect your Airbnb or VRBO ranking. EasyBookSTR syncs your calendar in real time so you never get a double booking, giving you the best of both worlds: OTA exposure plus commission-free direct bookings.

Can I manage multiple properties with EasyBookSTR?

Yes — all EasyBookSTR plans support multiple properties, and you can add additional properties in increments of 5 for $50/mo. The DiBSTR Insider plan supports up to 10 properties and is exclusively available to students of the DiBSTR Booking Revolution Course, making it especially suited for course graduates managing a growing portfolio.
