Net rate simply means the nightly price you set in the Host Portal is the payment you get. We’re able to provide this convenient pricing system to you because of Agoda's robust pricing tools where we will determine the optimal price to charge the guest, and pass on the commission to them (typically a 6-12% markup, paid by the guest).
Other hosting sites take commissions directly from hosts, so To make your prices the same across every platform you list your property on, you’ll need to take those fees into account. By looking at the “net”- the final total you receive as a payment after fees are collected- you can set the initial price at the correct number to get your desired payment.
