Sell experiences without commission
This page explains why commissions have become the norm in online booking, what they really cost in the long term, and how to sell experiences without intermediaries.
Most booking platforms take a commission on every sale.
Sometimes clearly shown.
Sometimes built into the final price.
Over time, this model penalizes experience creators.
The problem with commissions
A commission affects every booking:
- it reduces your real income
- it forces you to raise prices
- it creates platform dependency
- it accumulates without limits
It is not a one-time cost.
It is a continuous loss.
The ¡HolaOlas! approach
¡HolaOlas! takes no commission on your bookings.
You pay for a tool.
Not a percentage of your work.
This means:
- the same revenue per booking
- no penalty when your activity grows
- no conflict between your success and our model
Your growth belongs to you.
What this changes concretely
Selling without commission allows you to:
- maintain stable revenue, even as activity increases
- set prices freely, without inflating them to compensate
- sell directly, without depending on a platform
- maintain the relationship with your clients
One simple question remains: how to sell without commission, concretely, without heavy infrastructure or intermediaries?
