How to Book
Booking in the Dapp is not a smooth process as yet.
We are testing every step and we need your feedback.
THANK YOU!
With this procedure you can book listings where you see “Trips Community” as the seller.
We are helping Hosts who are not ready to deal with the blockchain yet.
We charge a total 5% commission to the Host, nothing else.
There are also a few Hosts who uploaded their properties themselves.
They have a different profile.
Just contact them via the messaging.
There is a 0% commission on those bookings and we can support only if you pay via Smart Contract.
1) Check the listings on the OTA
Check the availability, reviews, map and prices in Airbnb or Booking.
The minimum discount on that price is 10%.
10% discount? Just 331 €!
50% discount? Just 184 €!
Note: the discount is not applied on taxes the Host has to collect and pay to the administration.
2) Send a Request in the Dapp
Write down dates, number of people and property name.
At the moment we can’t collect these data automatically.
We will confirm to you the discounted price and further instructions to proceed with your booking.
You will receive a message via the Dapp.
Price and Availabilities are not updated!
Price and Calendars are rarely updated as it should be done daily and it’s just too much work.
We will build Channel Managers integrations in the future to solve that.
So, ignore the price in the Dapp.
and ignore the calendar too.
Just to make sure it is clear: check price and availability in Airbnb or Booking, not in the Dapp.
3) Pay
A ) SMART CONTRACT
You can pay in ETH or DAI (stable coin).
They will be kept in the Smart Contract and released by you later.
By the way, you don’t need to buy DAI, you can use ETH and the Smart Contract exchanges them behind the scenes!
B) Credit Card
The way it’s not meant to be.
But we understand some will prefer it this way for now.
You can pay with Credit/Debit card in Paypal but we’ll charge 3% extra to partially cover costs.
We’ll hold the money until 48 hours after check-out.
4) Booked! Get in Touch With the Host
You can do this by email, phone and in many other ways.
5) Problems? Let us know
In case of problems with the accommodation let us know. We’ll block the payment.
A dedicated team of the Community (the Panel) will decide upon the case.
About Discounts
Every property has a 10% guaranteed discount for all bookings.
We can do this because there is not OTA commission.
The host benefits from avoiding OTA bookings.
40-70% discounts are valid only for the first booking.
After the first booking, the discount reverts back to 10%.
The Host receives less, but is happy to offer this in order to help Trips Community
IF YOU SEE A DISCOUNT HERE, IT WILL BE APPLIED TO YOUR BOOKING!
It's Easy!
We know it may seem complicated at first but just make a request and then just follow our simple instructions, there is no need to learn anything right now.
Let's Start!
Be patient please, we’re still working on the best way to make it work as smoothly as possible.
First of all set up your Origin Wallet so you will collect free OGN tokens: Go To Origin Protocol.
See the available properties
Each property has been checked carefully, analyzing reviews, the picture quality, descriptions, etc. and then approved by the Community.
Almost half of the submissions do not pass these quality checks.
Why? The quality of the booking experience is still in its infancy. What we can do is to present great property listings.
