Free plan — and $0 per booking on every plan
Assumptions: 22% is the midpoint of typical OTA commissions (15–30%); $299/mo is the median for SaaS booking platforms in this category. Your actuals will vary. TripStub's Starter plan is $0 regardless; Growth and Scale are optional flat subscriptions — no TripStub plan ever charges per booking or takes a commission.
Same primitives, very different price tag.
Nobody gives away software for $0 without a revenue model. Here's ours, in full.
Operators who outgrow Starter pay a flat monthly rate for advanced modules — channel manager, merchandise, whitelabel, and friends. That subscription revenue, not your booking volume, is what funds the free plan.
When you connect a payment gateway (Stripe, Adyen, etc.), the provider pays us a small cut of their take rate. You pay the gateway their standard pricing — exactly what you'd pay signing up directly. The extra goes to us, not to them.
A handful of premium OTA integrations (e.g., dedicated Viator sync tiers) charge a per-booking fee to use their high-throughput pipes. Where that fee exists, it's clearly marked on the channel page before you enable it.
Everything that costs money anywhere near TripStub, called out here so there are no surprises:
That's it. If you see any other charge in the admin that isn't on this list, it's a bug — email us.
Full FAQ at /faq.
Is Starter really free?
Yes — $0, forever. Not a trial, no card on file, no booking caps. The whole core platform plus reviews, gift cards, promo codes, and every product type. If you never upgrade, you never pay us a cent.
Can I change plans later?
Anytime. Upgrades apply immediately; downgrades take effect at the end of the billing period. Nothing is deleted on a downgrade — modules outside your new plan switch off softly and pick up where they left off if you come back.
How do you make money?
Growth and Scale subscriptions, plus payment-provider referral fees and opt-in premium channel connector fees. Flat rates only — we never take a cut of your bookings.
