For self managing UK hosts
Full service managers in the UK typically take 15 to 30 percent of your revenue. Ariv gives you the support that actually matters, local cleaners and trades, clear statements, and stock alerts, while you keep control and keep far more of what you earn.
Get set up this weekTraditional Airbnb management companies bundle everything into one large commission, often 15 to 30 percent of your booking revenue, and you have little visibility of where it goes. Ariv flips that. You pay a low host commission and get the practical support most managers charge a premium for.
No long contracts, no exclusivity, and you keep direct control of your listing and your payouts.
Cleaning and changeovers
Line up a local changeover cleaner around each booking, without the last minute scramble.
Trades when something breaks
A trusted handyman or tradesperson on tap, so a broken boiler does not become a cancelled stay.
Statements and admin
Clear monthly statements in plain English, so you always know what you earned and what was deducted.
Stock and restock alerts
Live alerts when supplies run low at a property, so you restock before a guest notices.
The people who clean and fix your property matter as much as the booking itself. As the network launches we will ID and background check the cleaners and tradespeople on it, so you are not handing your keys to whoever was cheapest that week. You see who is coming and you stay in control.
At the end of each month you get a single clear statement: what you earned, what was deducted, and what is on its way to your account. No spreadsheet to build, no guessing. It is the kind of clarity full management promises and rarely delivers.

0% for 90 days
as a founding host, then 10%, then 13% host only, plus the support you actually use
Most full service Airbnb management companies in the UK take 15 to 30 percent of your booking revenue. Ariv is built for hosts who would rather keep that margin: it charges a 13 percent host commission, host only so there is no separate guest fee, which sits below Airbnb's own 15 to 18 percent. The first 100 founding hosts pay 0 percent for their first 90 days, then 10 percent for the rest of year one.
The cheapest approach for most UK hosts is to keep control of the listing yourself and buy in only the parts you cannot do alone, such as changeover cleaning and trades. That is exactly the model Ariv supports, so you avoid a large blanket commission while still getting local help as our network grows in your area.
Yes. Self managing does not mean doing everything yourself, it means staying in control of your pricing, calendar and payouts while bringing in support around each booking. Ariv is designed so you can book a local changeover cleaner or a tradesperson when you need one, without signing up to a full management contract. We are pre launch and building that network city by city, and we will ID and background check cleaners and tradespeople as the network launches, so list your place and we will tell you where we stand in your area.
We are honest about this: Ariv is pre launch and we are building our local cleaner and trade network city by city, so coverage is not everywhere yet. As the network launches we will ID and background check the cleaners and tradespeople on it. List your place at /become-host and we will tell you exactly where we stand in your area, and if you clean or work in the trades you can join the network at /provider/signup.
A traditional manager taking 15 to 30 percent is paying for a full hands off service, which suits hosts who never want to touch the listing. If you are happy to stay involved and just want reliable cleaning, trades and clear monthly statements, a low commission approach like Ariv keeps far more of your earnings in your pocket.
