Kora is your booking engine — availability, payments, guest communications, and reviews — under your brand. By default, a small platform fee is paid by the guest at checkout — not skimmed from your rate the way marketplace commissions hit the business.

Marketplaces are built to own the customer relationship — not to grow yours

Every booking through a third-party channel deepens their data graph. Kora helps you run a direct channel you control.

💸
Fees add up fast

Many marketplaces charge the business a commission on every booking. Kora's default is different: the small platform fee is paid by the guest at checkout, so you keep the price you set.

🔒
You need your own channel

Email lists, promos, and loyalty work best when you can reach guests on your terms — not only inside a walled garden.

Manual workflows break

Spreadsheets and DMs do not scale. You need inventory, pricing rules, and confirmations in one system.

🛠
DIY stacks are fragile

Duct-taping tools together creates gaps at the worst moments. Kora is one cohesive booking layer.

Straightforward SaaS — guest pays the platform fee by default

You pay a flat monthly subscription for Kora. On guest checkout, the default setup is a small platform/booking fee paid by the customer — so your business keeps the rate you set, unlike marketplaces that charge the operator a commission on every booking. Exact behavior can be configured in the product; card processing still runs through Stripe.

Guest vs operator economics: by default the booking platform fee is paid by the guest at checkout, so your listed price is not reduced by a Kora commission the way many marketplaces tax the business. Your organization can adjust how fees are presented where the product allows. Limits are soft — hitting a cap blocks new actions until you upgrade. Upgrades take effect on your next billing change in Stripe. Downgrades may apply at period end depending on your subscription. USD-focused billing in current plans. See Terms for details.
AI Voice Agent — optional add-on

Optional receptionist-style voice capabilities for after-hours or overflow. Billed separately from base plans when enabled for your organization.

Common questions
No. Many operators keep marketplace listings for discovery, then move repeat guests to direct booking. Calendar sync helps avoid double-booking across channels.
You pay Kora a flat monthly SaaS subscription. On each guest checkout, the default is a small platform/booking fee paid by the guest — so we are not taking a marketplace-style commission out of your side of the booking. You keep the price you set; the guest sees the fee as part of checkout (configurable in the product). Stripe processing fees still apply to card payments.
Stripe processes payments. Depending on your setup, charges may run on your connected account or as configured for your organization. By default the guest-paid platform fee is part of the checkout total; refunds and disputes are managed in Stripe like any other card payment.
Yes. Guests can complete checkout and manage their booking through email links and the guest experience without a full account when your flow supports it.
Plan limits are enforced in the product: when you reach a cap, the relevant action is blocked until you upgrade. See your billing page for current limits.
Kora is built for operators who sell bookable time or capacity — rentals, experiences, appointments, and similar models. See the About page for how to reach the team.
