From Hidden Fees to Full Transparency: Compliant Pricing Strategies for VRMs

Vacation rental managers face constant challenges with card fees, unclear statements, and compliance risks. Many don’t realize how small missteps in pricing strategy can create margin loss or even brand exposure with Visa and Mastercard.

This session will walk through compliant ways to structure guest-paid fees, how industry codes like SIC 6513 affect your costs, and what property managers should know before choosing a pricing model. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of how to protect your margins, maintain transparency with guests, and stay aligned with card brand rules.

In this session, you’ll learn: 

• Common compliance mistakes in passing card fees and how to avoid them. 
• Why SIC 6513 classification matters for Vacation Rental Managers (VRMs) and how it lowers costs. 
• What guest-paid models look like in practice and their impact on guest experience. How traditional pricing can still be optimized for savings and transparency. 
• Practical steps to align your PMS and gateway setup with compliant pricing strategies.
