Commissions through the portal (gomio.com)
GoMio charges the traveller a 10% non-refundable deposit due immediately upon booking. This deposit reflects the commission charged to the hostel for the booking. The remaining 90% of the transaction is paid directly to the hostel upon check-in.
Commissions through GoMio's affiliate network
Our hostels can also be booked from many of our partner websites that are in agreement with Gomio.com. We have partnerships with websites in the travel industry, hostel associations and Universities. We are intensively working and expanding our network.
Once your registration is approved, your hostel will be listed in gomio.com and in our affiliate network automatically.
Bookings on hostel’s websites that use GoMio’s “Customized Reservation Page” (CRP) technology
GoMio offers the possibility to use our technology in your hostel website to process confirmed bookings.
You can create your own CRP on your own from the GoMio Management System. Additionally, feel free to contact the GoMio Team to check the latest offers for this product: www.gomio.com/en/contact.php
B2B products: SocialBookerTM and GoDashboard
You can check our new social media products for the hostel industry in our B2B: www.gomio.com/b2b.
Please note that we have special commissions and offers for our products. You can contact us and the B2B department will assist you with our products: www.gomio.com/en/contact.php
Booking process and notifications
The bookings are automatically confirmed in gomio.com. We send an automatic email to the customer and the hostel. Please note that we can’t guarantee that the email will reach your server correctly, so you have to check the GoMio Management System (inbox) often to be sure that you don’t have bookings pending to be processed.
Once the booking is confirmed, the hostel has to honour the booking as stipulated in our Terms & Conditions: www.gomio.com/terms.php
Changes in the reservations and cancellations are directly managed between the customer and the hostel. GoMio doesn’t take part in the booking after the confirmation.
Please note that GoMio highly recommends using a
PMS (Property Management System) and a
Channel Manager to manage your bookings and availability through the different Channels. In case you don’t have this technology, please contact us and we will assist you:
