Frequently asked questions
Is Uplisting or OwnerRez cheaper?
Uplisting starts at £40/month flat (Independent Host) or £0/month plus 3% commission via Pay As You Go for up to 4 properties. OwnerRez starts at $88/month on a sliding scale with no commissions, setup fees or booking fees. Which works out cheaper depends on your property count and booking volume, since Uplisting's flat plans and OwnerRez's premium add-ons both affect the final cost.
Does Uplisting or OwnerRez charge commission on bookings?
Uplisting's flat monthly plans are commission-free, but it also offers a Pay As You Go option charging 3% (1-4 properties) or 1.5% (5-10 properties) per booking. OwnerRez charges no commissions, guest fees or per-booking fees on any plan, though premium features such as SMS messaging carry usage-based costs after a set threshold.
Which is better for a growing property management company, Uplisting or OwnerRez?
Uplisting is positioned for operators scaling from a handful of listings to 50+ properties with tiered plans (Independent Host, Operator, Manager). OwnerRez serves everyone from individual homeowners to large property management companies and includes a dedicated property management module with trust accounting and commission calculation, which can suit larger multi-owner operations.
How easy is it to switch from Uplisting or OwnerRez to another platform?
Both platforms integrate with major OTAs (Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo) via two-way API sync, which generally makes calendar and listing data portable. OwnerRez customer feedback notes a learning curve due to how deep its settings go, so migrating away from a heavily configured account may take more planning than with Uplisting's simpler plan structure.
What's the key difference between Uplisting and OwnerRez?
Uplisting emphasises a lean, official-partner channel manager with commission-free direct bookings and flexible Pay As You Go pricing for smaller and mid-sized operators. OwnerRez emphasises deep in-house API integrations, no commissions on any plan, and a built-in property management and trust accounting module aimed at both individual owners and larger PM companies.
