For shortlet hosts

Shortlets, booked and paid for online

Create a listing, share your booking link and let guests book and pay online. Recurrent takes care of approvals, deposits, guest emails and check-in, so you can focus on hosting.

Listings & bookings

Set up your shortlet once, then take bookings online

List your property, price it your way and decide how bookings are approved, all from one dashboard.

Create your listing

Add the property type, address and map pin, rooms, amenities, safety items and at least five photos. Then share your booking link so guests can view and book online.

Pricing, deposits and discounts

Set your price per night, the deposit guests pay to reserve, a 7-day booking discount, your maximum stay and check-in and check-out times.

Rates and real-time availability

Set daily, weekly or monthly rates with minimum and maximum stays. Your calendar updates as bookings come in, so dates are never double-booked.

Manual or automatic approval

Review every booking request yourself, or switch on automatic approval and let Recurrent confirm bookings as they arrive.

Policies your way

Start from default house rules, terms and conditions and a cancellation policy. Pick one of three house rules templates and edit any policy to suit you.

How do guests book my shortlet?

Create your shortlet listing on Recurrent and share its booking link. Guests open the link, view your property, pick their dates, number of guests and arrival time, add any special requests and reserve online.

Do guests have to pay a deposit to reserve?

Only if you want them to. You set the reservation deposit as a percentage of the total booking cost. Set it to zero and guests can reserve without paying anything upfront.

Can I approve each booking myself?

Yes. Choose manual approval to review every request before it is confirmed, or automatic approval to confirm bookings as they come in. Guests get an email at each step either way.

How does guest check-in work?

After booking, guests receive an email with a link to a secure guest portal. They accept your house rules and, if you have turned them on, verify their identity and pay for renter's insurance. On arrival they check in through a secure link that verifies their location and notifies you.

How do I get paid?

Guests pay through Recurrent by card, bank transfer and other methods, and get a receipt by email. Every payment is recorded against its booking, so your records stay accurate, and you can withdraw to your bank quickly.

Can I use my own house rules and policies?

Yes. Recurrent fills in default house rules, terms and conditions and a cancellation policy for you. Pick one of three house rules templates and edit any policy to suit your business.
