Wayzyy's Prepaid Credit Tiers
Instead of a per-booking commission, Wayzyy hosts buy a credit pack upfront that unlocks a set value of bookings. There's no deduction from individual payouts — you keep 100% of the nightly rate you set.
| Credit pack | Unlocks bookings up to | Effective rate |
|---|---|---|
| ₹600 | ₹20,000 | 3.0% |
| ₹1,200 | ₹50,000 | 2.4% |
| ₹2,200 | ₹1,00,000 | 2.2% |
| ₹5,000 | ₹2,50,000 | 2.0% |
| ₹10,000 | ₹5,00,000 | 2.0% |
| Custom plan | Any amount beyond ₹5,00,000 | 2.0% |
From ₹2,50,000/year onward, the effective rate holds at a 2.0% floor — and for bookings beyond ₹5,00,000/year, hosts move to a Custom plan at the same flat 2.0% rate, however much you book. Full terms are in our Host Terms of Service.
