Because across Airbnb, Booking.com, and Vrbo, “commission” and “taxes” do not mean the same thing. Revenue Distribution normalizes every line item so you can reconcile faster, protect margin, and give owners statements they instantly trust.

No. Revenue Distribution is auto-computed from booking data and channel rules, so your team stops deciphering exports and stops rebuilding spreadsheets. They spend time validating decisions, answering owners faster, and managing by facts instead of assumptions.
Will the numbers match the OTA rules?
Yes. The breakdown is built to mirror how channels calculate commission bases, eligible fee lines, and payout deductions. That means the logic is explainable, repeatable, and consistent across bookings, so you can trust it for owner statements and finance checks.
Will owners be overwhelmed by too much detail?
They get a clean summary first so the statement stays readable. When needed, one click expands to the full audit trail, which is ideal when an owner questions a specific booking or when you need to justify a net amount without starting a back-and-forth thread.
What about taxes that change all the time?
The view separates withheld taxes from taxes you still owe, per booking and per market. That keeps responsibilities clear, helps prevent missed liabilities, and makes it easier to answer “did the OTA remit this?” without digging through help articles or payout reports.
My accountant already handles reconciliation. Why do I need this?
Accountants validate faster when the data is structured per booking, with acquisition costs and tax treatment clearly separated. Instead of spending hours interpreting OTA exports, they can confirm numbers in minutes, and you reduce corrections, disputes, and late surprises.
