Attracting monthly trips
It’s important to offer a discount to make your pricing for monthly trips competitive with short-term leases or other alternatives.
Just like a monthly apartment rental has a lower cost per night than a hotel’s nightly rate, guests expect lower daily rates for longer trips.
Hosts offer a 45% monthly discount to unlock reduced distance limits and make their vehicle more attractive for guests looking for monthly trips.
When hosts optimize their settings for monthly trips with a 45% discount, they automatically unlock a reduced distance limit of 2,700 km/month, to help reduce wear and tear on their car.
Yes, if you optimize your settings for monthly trips, you can still get bookings for shorter trips.
No, for any trip that’s longer than seven days, you’ll get partial payments every week until the trip has ended.
*The following stats are specifically for trips in Canada. The earnings stat covers October 1, 2024 – September 30, 2025. The distance stat is for trips ending January 1 – September 30, 2025. The claims stat is for trips completed January 1 – September 30, 2025.
Monthly trips that are longer than a month are treated as multiple 30-day trips. When a guest books a trip that is longer than 30 days, each 30-day segment (or portion thereof) is considered a separate trip. You may see this treatment on invoices and in your dashboards.
