Getting Paid as a Host
When and how you receive payouts for confirmed bookings on SpacetoCo.
Casual Hosts
Payouts for Casual Bookings are processed automatically around 5 days after a booking ends. For example, if a booking takes place on a Saturday, SpacetoCo processes your payout on the following Thursday.
SpacetoCo collects payment from the Customer upfront for all Casual Bookings. The 5-day window before payout gives you time to adjust the booking if anything changes, such as extra time used or Additional Items added. Any booking edits adjust the payout total automatically.
You will receive an email notification when your payout is processed. Once processed, funds usually clear into your bank account within a couple of business days, depending on your bank.
Partner Hosts
Partner Hosts operate on a monthly payout cycle that consolidates earnings into a single lump sum.
Benefits for Partner Hosts include:
- Extended time to edit bookings after they have taken place (up to 20–50 days)
- Single monthly lump-sum payouts issued on or around the 25th of the following month
- Extended timeframes for submitting Post-Event SpaceProtect claims
- Detailed reporting included with each monthly payout
- Automated monthly invoicing for Regular Bookings
Timeline for payouts
