The Free plan has no monthly fee, and a one-time $5.99 host verification makes a listing visible in Houfy search. Lite is $7.99 per listing per month and Premium is $11.99, adding optional tools such as a website builder, PMS integrations and priority support. Bookings made through certain PMS integrations add a 5% API connection fee, paid by the guest at checkout and not deducted from the host's payout.

Houfy earns from optional plans rather than from a share of your bookings. The Free plan has no monthly fee; Lite and Premium add tools for a monthly or yearly fee. Houfy also charges a 5% API connection fee on bookings made through certain PMS integrations, which covers what those software partners bill Houfy for the connection. The guest pays it at checkout as a separate transaction, and hosts are not billed for it.
