@Rooms0  Since you're part of the EU I think it's 3.6% commission/service fee. It will be listed on any reservation you get.

Hi, thank you for that 🙂
Is maybe the amount of all service fees gathered anywhere on the site?

What is the Airbnb service fee?

 

To help operate the Airbnb platform, we charge a service fee to hosts and guests when a booking is confirmed.

Fees for home bookings Host service fees

 

The host service fee for homes is generally 3%, but may be higher for hosts in Italy or hosts who have a Super Strict cancellation policy. This fee is calculated from the booking subtotal (the nightly rate plus cleaning fee and additional guest fee, if applicable, but excluding Airbnb fees and taxes) and is automatically deducted from the payout to the host.

 

To review the service fee charged for a particular booking:

  1. Go to Transaction history on airbnb.com
  2. Next to the reservation you want to review, click the reservation code
  3. Under Payout, you'll see Airbnb Service Fee
Guest service fees

 

The guest service fee for homes ranges between 0% and 20% of the booking subtotal (the nightly rate plus cleaning fee and additional guest fee, if applicable, but excluding Airbnb fees and taxes) and is calculated using a variety of factors—these include the reservation subtotal, the length of the stay, and characteristics of the listing. In general, the service fee gets lower as the reservation cost gets higher. Guests see this fee on the checkout page before they book a reservation.

 

If Airbnb is required to collect VAT, the service fee and VAT amounts will be combined on the checkout page, which could make the service fee appear to be higher than 20%.

 
Fees for experiences Host service fees

 

We charge hosts who offer experiences a 20% service fee. This is calculated based on the price of the experience and is automatically deducted from the host’s payout. Hosts who participate in nonprofit partnerships for experiences have this fee waived.

 
Guest service fees

 

We currently do not charge a guest service fee for experiences.

VAT charges on service fees

 

Depending on the laws of the jurisdiction involved, VAT may be charged on top of the host and guest service fee. The service fee will include these VAT charges when applicable.

They also take a guest fee of up to 20% depending on price of listing, can be higher if including VAT according to the website. This is on top of your price. The 3% gets taken FROM your price.
