For your cleaning fees to be automatically recognized and synced with your Airbnb account, you need to set up an option in Reservit following a few simple rules. Here is how to do it:
1. Set Up the Cleaning Option
When creating your option, make sure to follow Airbnb's required standards:
-
Identification: You must include the word "cleaning" in the name of your option, AND classify it directly under the "cleaning fee" category.
-
Pricing: The price must be a flat rate (it cannot be a price per night or a price per person). Additionally, the associated tax must not be applied per person.

2. Assign the Option to Your Offer
Once the option is properly configured, you need to enable it for your distribution channels.
-
Assignment: Link this new option to the specific offer you transmit to Airbnb.

What Happens Next?
Once these two steps are completed, you don't have to do anything else! Reservit will automatically transmit this amount to Airbnb as a cleaning fee applied to the entire group (and not per individual).
📌 Important Note Regarding the Displayed Price The cleaning fee amount sent to Airbnb (whether excluding taxes or tax-inclusive) will depend on your price entry settings in Reservit, as well as your listing's eligibility for automated tax collection by Airbnb.
