Uplisting Pricing 2026: Plans, Real Costs, and Is It Worth It?

Uplisting publishes a clean per-listing rate, which makes it one of the more transparent short-term-rental tools on the market. In US dollar terms the platform runs from about $20 per listing per month, with a small-portfolio floor near $100 per month for up to five properties. Native billing is in British pounds at £72 per month for one to five listings and £16 per property per month for six to forty. Uplisting markets no hidden fees and does not take a percentage of booking revenue, so for a small vacation-rental host or B&B the software spend is roughly $100 to $500 per month depending on unit count.

If your inventory is hotel rooms rather than whole-home listings, price Uplisting against purpose-built independent hotel software as you read, because the two tools are built for different operations.

Uplisting pricing plans

Uplisting sells three tiers, and the price tracks how many listings you connect. The plans below combine Uplisting's published rate card with figures reported by directories such as Capterra, G2, and GetApp. Dollar figures are approximate conversions from the pound pricing.

Independent Host covers one to five properties at a flat £72 per month (about $100), or roughly $20 per listing at five units. It includes the unified inbox, multi-calendar, automated guest messaging, channel manager, direct booking website, mobile app, automated reviews, an Airbnb auto-responder, SMS, guest payment links, a cleaning scheduler, and eSignature agreements.

Portfolio Manager is the most popular tier, for six to forty properties at £16 per property per month (about $20). It carries everything in Independent Host plus priority support with faster response times.

Premier is custom pricing for 41+ properties, with priority access and a dedicated product specialist.

Uplisting pricing plans compared

The feature list is broadly consistent across tiers, so the real differences are the price floor, the per-listing rate, and support speed. Here is the plan-by-plan picture for a small hotel, B&B, or host.

Two things stand out. The base feature set is genuinely broad, and the pricing is honest about being per listing with no revenue share. But the tools that a property manager often needs, owner statements and a client portal, security deposits, and guest identity verification, are paid add-ons rather than plan inclusions. Both matter for the real total, which is the next section. A hotel property management system built for front-desk work counts rooms and rate plans instead of listings, so the underlying math reads differently.

‍

What Uplisting costs for your property size

A per-listing rate only means something once you apply it to a real property, add the floor, and layer in the add-ons you will actually run. The worked estimates below use Uplisting's published rate converted to dollars, and payment processing through your own provider is separate in every case.

A 4-unit B&B or small host. You sit on the Independent Host plan at its flat floor, about $100 per month (£72), which works out to roughly $25 per listing because the flat rate does not fall below five units. Small portfolios carry the highest effective per-unit cost.

A 10-unit property. Portfolio Manager at about $20 per listing is 10 x $20, which is $200 per month (£160). Add the client statements and portal add-on and the number climbs with each unit.

A 25-unit portfolio. At about $20 per listing that is 25 x $20, or roughly $500 per month (£400) before add-ons. This is where per-listing scaling starts to feel like a real line item.

Use it as a template: take your listing count, multiply by the ~$20 per-listing rate, apply the ~$100 floor if you are small, then add each module you cannot do without. A full walkthrough of that method sits in our hotel software pricing guide, and buyers comparing platforms across the market can start with our hotel pms systems overview.

Uplisting hidden costs

Uplisting is more upfront than most short-term-rental tools, and it deserves credit for that. Still, a few costs surface later, and the biggest is fit rather than a fee.

• Add-on modules. Client statements and an owner portal are reported around $8 to $10 per property per month, security deposits around $4 to $5 per property, and guest identity verification is charged per check. Property managers often need these, so the effective per-listing rate is higher than the headline.
• Payment processing is on you. Uplisting connects your own Stripe account, so card fees are separate and set by your processor, not bundled. That is transparent, but it is still a real cost to model against true hotel payment processing.
• Thin hotel operations. Uplisting handles channels, messaging, and direct bookings well, but it does not run a hotel front desk, night audit, room-level folio, or POS. For a property that needs those, the gap is the real cost.
• Fewer channels than the largest platforms. Uplisting focuses on the core rental channels, so a property that needs deep OTA and GDS distribution may find the connection list narrower than a full hotel channel manager.

To be fair, Uplisting earns strong reviews for reliable channel syncing, clean automation, fast support, and genuinely no-hidden-fee, no-revenue-share pricing. For a small vacation-rental operator who wants predictable billing and solid Airbnb and Booking.com syncing, those are real strengths.

Uplisting pricing vs roommaster pricing

Both are straightforward about how they charge, but they price different worlds. Uplisting prices per listing for short-term-rental hosts. roommaster is a hotel-native platform that quotes by property type and size and bundles the operating stack into one number.

‍

Why roommaster is a smart choice for hotels and B&Bs

Uplisting is built to sync listings and automate messages. roommaster is built to run a property: the front desk, the night audit, the folio, and the room-level detail a hotel or B&B lives on, packaged into one quote instead of a per-listing rate plus a stack of add-ons.

That design closes the gaps above. Because the platform already includes the booking engine, channel manager, and built-in revenue tools, there is no separate statements module to bolt on and no revenue features left out of the base plan. You run reservations, payments, and guest records off one hospitality system, so night audit, group blocks, and rate plans behave the way a front desk expects rather than the way a rental calendar does. A small hotel management software setup and a bed and breakfast software setup come from one vendor, so onboarding, training, and support have a single owner.

When is Uplisting the better pick? If your inventory is whole-home Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com listings and you want honest per-listing billing with no revenue share, Uplisting is purpose-built for that and roommaster is not the tool for a pure rental portfolio. For a hotel, inn, motel, or B&B that thinks in rooms, rates, and a front desk, roommaster is the stronger fit.

Bottom Line

Uplisting is a well-priced, transparent short-term-rental tool, and for a host running whole-home listings, the flat per-listing rate and no-revenue-share model are genuinely appealing. The catch is fit rather than fee. The base plan is broad, but add owner statements, deposits, and identity checks and the effective rate rises, and none of it gives a hotel the front desk, night audit, and folio it actually needs.

The smart move is to model it honestly. Take your listing count, apply the ~$20 per-listing rate, add the ~$100 floor if you are small, layer in the add-ons you will run, and then ask whether a listing tool or a hotel platform matches your property. If you run rooms, compare that all-in figure against one bundled hotel quote rather than a headline per-listing rate.

2. Does Uplisting have transparent pricing?

4. Is Uplisting good for hotels?

Uplisting is built for short-term-rental hosts, not hotel front-desk work. It has no night audit, room-level folio, or POS the way a PMS runs them, so hotels, inns, and B&Bs are usually better served by a hospitality-native platform.

Yes. Uplisting advertises a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and monthly or yearly billing with a discount for annual plans. Billing adjusts mid-cycle based on active properties.

6. How does Uplisting pricing compare to roommaster?

Uplisting charges a flat per-listing rate for rental hosts with no revenue share. roommaster bundles the hotel operating stack, front desk, booking engine, channel manager, and revenue tools, into one custom quote by property type, which tends to fit hotels and B&Bs better.
