    Direct booking vs an OTA

    How Tomove is different.

    An OTA (online travel agency) sits between you and the owner. Tomove doesn't.

    Lower fees

    Lower fees than the big booking platforms.

    Most booking sites take around 12–15% of every booking. Tomove is free to list and charges guests no service fee, so hosts keep more and can pass the savings on to guests as discounts.

    • Free to list for holiday homes, yacht charters, long-term rentals, experiences, services and crew jobs.
    • No guest service fees. Travellers pay the host’s price, with nothing added by Tomove.
    • Savings passed on. Hosts can offer guests discounts with the money they save on fees.

    Tomove: 5% on Pay as you go, or no booking fees with a Membership. Many platforms also add a service fee for guests; Tomove does not.

    Questions

    Frequently asked questions

    Booking direct, fees and getting started. Can’t find your answer? Visit the Help Centre.

    Is Tomove a booking agency (OTA)?

    No. Tomove is a direct-booking online marketplace connecting guests and customers with boat owners, accommodation hosts, charter operators and service providers. We provide the platform to discover listings and connect with providers, but we don't act as a booking agent or handle customer payments.

    What does booking direct mean?

    You deal directly with the person providing the accommodation, charter, experience or service. Find what you're looking for, contact the provider, agree on the details and arrange payment with them.

    Do guests pay a booking fee on Tomove?

    No. Tomove charges guests no platform service or booking fee. You pay the price set by the provider, plus any extras included in their listing.

    Is it cheaper to book direct than through a big booking platform?

    Often, but not always. Large booking platforms can add guest service fees and charge providers commission. Tomove doesn't charge guests a booking fee, and providers set their own prices. It's always worth comparing the final price.

    How do I pay, and is it safe?

    Payments are arranged directly with the provider. Hosts who accept payments through Stripe must complete the required identity verification. Depending on their plan, they can use their own Stripe account or Tomove's enhanced ID verification. Guests and hosts also verify their email, mobile number and profile details.

    Tomove doesn't store copies of your ID documents or selfies. How verification works

    Does it cost anything to list on Tomove?

    No. All listing types are free to create, with no upfront listing fees.

    For stays, charters and experiences, providers choose between Pay as you go (5% per confirmed booking paid through Stripe) or a Membership with no per-booking Tomove fees. Standard Stripe payment processing fees still apply to card payments.

    Long-term rentals, services and crew jobs have no listing or booking fees.

    Who sets the prices and booking terms?

    The owner, host or service provider sets their own prices, availability and terms. You discuss your requirements directly with them and agree on the arrangements before proceeding.

    What can I book or list on Tomove?

    Tomove covers holiday homes and villas, boat and yacht charters, long-term rentals, experiences and activities, local services such as transfers and private chefs, and crew jobs for boats and sailing projects.
