How Does Hiring Out Work for Small Businesses?

December 31, 2023 in About Hiring Out and How it works

Are you a small business owner and considering hiring out on Goboony? Let’s break down how hiring out works for small businesses.

How do I get started?  

If you’d like to list 5 or more motorhomes, start by contacting business@goboony.co.uk to inquire about hiring out and make sure you’re up to speed about all information about hiring out as a small business owner. 

Next, create an account. If you’re a registered business choose the option to set up a business account to ensure your earnings are paid out to your business bank account. 

What does it cost and does Goboony take a commission? 

Listing your vehicles on our platform as a small business owner is free. There are no costs for creating an account or for hiring out. Furthermore, whatever you set as your hire rate, is what you’ll earn. We earn our income as a business by charging the hiring party a service fee of up to 19.5% on top of your hire fee, depending on the time of the year. Therefore, this is not taken out of your income. 

The service fee is charged to travellers who hire your vehicles by default. However, if you’d like to match your rates across platforms, or offer a more competitive rate to your hirers, we do offer the option to lift the traveller service fee and charge you as the advertiser a commission for bookings made on our platform instead. If you’d like to discuss this further, please reach out to business@goboony.co.uk. Please note that you are only eligible for this option if you list 5 vehicles or more on our platform. 

How does it work with the terms and conditions? 

The Goboony terms and conditions shall take precedence for all bookings for your motorhomes made on our platform. However, you can disclose any house rules, booking conditions, charges or extra services you offer on your listings.

How do I manage my booking calendar? 

As an advertiser on Goboony, you control your own booking calendar. This means you can set the availability and unavailability of your motorhomes per day. You have the option of syncing your Goboony calendar with your iCal link. To facilitate the synchronization, you’ll need to import your external calendar to Goboony and vice versa. If you need help with syncing your calendar, please reach out to hireout@goboony.co.uk
