Who pays the booking fee?
The Host pays the booking fee. Radius charges a flat 8% booking fee, deducted from the Host's payout after each completed booking.
What Companies and Guests pay
Nothing extra. The price you see on a listing is the price you pay — no service fee, no surcharge, no hidden markup at checkout.
What Hosts receive
Hosts receive 92% of the listing rate. The 8% booking fee is deducted automatically from each payout. There are no listing fees, no annual subscription, and no upfront costs. Hosts only pay when a booking happens.
How it compares
Most short-term rental platforms split fees between host and guest, and add a service fee at checkout. On Radius, the rate the Booker or Guest sees at search is the rate they pay — period. For Hosts, a flat 8% is materially lower than typical platform fees elsewhere.
Extensions
The same 8% booking fee applies to the extension portion of a stay. Same flow, just on the additional days.
