Direct bookings, 0% commission.
Vortex PMS's booking engine lives on your domain. Guests book, Stripe charges, money lands in your account. We take nothing per booking — just the flat subscription.
Book at yourhotel.com/book — not at some third-party domain. Your guests stay in your brand the whole way through.
Drop a single-line script on any page of your existing site. The booking widget overlays, takes the booking, returns the guest to your page.
Direct booking through Vortex PMS: we take 0%. Stripe charges its normal processing fee (2.9% + 30¢ in most markets); nothing more on top.
Connect your Stripe account during setup. Funds settle directly to your bank. Vortex PMS never sits in the money flow.
70%+ of direct bookings now come from mobile. The booking engine is built mobile-first, not desktop-with-responsive-rules.
Sell room-only, breakfast included, non-refundable, multi-night deals. Add upsells at checkout: airport transfer, late checkout, spa.
Issue promo codes for returning guests, partners, locals. Limit by date, by rate plan, by usage count.
Guests see prices in their currency (or yours — your choice). Booking flow translates into 12+ languages.
Why direct bookings matter.
Booking.com takes 15–25% of every booking. Airbnb takes 14–20%. On a $200/night stay through an OTA, you keep $150–170. Through your own booking engine on Vortex PMS, you keep $194 (after Stripe's $5.80). Over a year, the OTAs cost you a part-time salary; the booking engine costs you nothing extra.
Direct bookings aren't about leaving OTAs. They're about not paying OTA commission on the guests who would book directly if you let them.
Take direct bookings on your own domain.
Booking engine included. Stripe-powered. 0% to Vortex PMS, ever. Set up in 20 minutes.
