payout matters

Hi Everyone , 

 

I would like to clarify on the payouts matter. Each time the payouts seem to be difference even the tenants booked the same amount of days with my condominium.

 

Example: 2 days 1 night :

1st payout reflected  : RM 241

2nd payout reflected : RM 239

 

How could this be happened? Should be the same amount of payout?

Airbnb rounds up the payout, take a look at the service terms with Airbnb. Also currency exchange changes daily. Your discrepancy is very minor, there is nothing to be worried about.

It will simply be agio.

I have a similar experience. Small discrepancy in pay out and always in Air bnb's favour. This is annoying and I want to know why they do it.

It is agio and it is not always in the favour of airbnb. Exchange rates fluctuate and there will always be the agio aspect.  In my country it is now not allowed to withhold funds in the hope of earning a $ or two, in other countries it is common practice, so it all depends what is legal practice where.  airbnb will grab every opportunity to increase earnings - that is the nature of all businesses.
