Six Steps To
The Annual Figure

The calculation is simple enough to check against a statement. All amounts are in pounds sterling.

Monthly Commission

Average booking value × bookings per month × (commission percentage ÷ 100).

Monthly Booking Fees

Flat fee per booking × bookings per month.

Combined Monthly Cost

Monthly commission + monthly booking fees.

Annual Cost

Combined monthly cost × 12.

Cost Of Each Booking

Combined monthly cost ÷ bookings per month.

Flat Fee Comparison

Flat monthly fee × 12. Subtract this from the annual commission-and-fee total to find the difference.

Read The Cost
In Context

A yearly total makes a small charge on each booking easier to assess. It does not tell you whether the platform is earning that charge.

Allow For Seasonal Demand

The annual figure assumes twelve identical months. Use a monthly average, or compare a busy month with a quiet one to understand the range.

Check The Rest Of The Statement

The model does not include card charges, refunds, cancelled bookings, no-shows or discounts. Account for those separately before relying on the result.

Consider Where Bookings Come From

A platform may introduce customers who would not otherwise find you. Some bookings may come from regulars or people who already know your business. Calculate that second group separately to see its commission cost.

This tool measures cost, not commercial value, and is not advice. Check the output against your own statements before making a decision.

What To Include In Your Decision

A deposit paid through the website carries a fee of 2.5% + 20p for a standard UK card, including the card processor's charge. Valacia does not bring an audience of its own.

It also does not synchronise bookings with other platforms. Rooms or tables sold elsewhere need to be marked as taken in Valacia Studio.

Valacia Terms, clauses 3.8, 4.3 and 4.8, describe the relevant booking and payment terms.

Your Questions Answered

What Counts As A Per-Booking Fee?

A fixed charge for each booking supplied by a platform, separate from percentage commission. Enter it in the fee-per-booking field. The calculation multiplies it by monthly booking volume and then by twelve for the annual figure.

Does Commission Free Mean There Are No Other Charges?

No. It means the provider does not take a percentage or flat charge from each booking. A fixed subscription may still apply, and taking a card payment can incur a processing charge. Compare the complete charging structure.

Why Are There No Preset Platform Rates?

Commission and booking fees differ by contract and can change. A named provider's headline rate may not be yours. Enter the figures on your own statement to calculate the cost of your arrangement.

Are The Figures Visible To Linko Vectis?

No. Calculations run in your browser and the inputs are not transmitted, stored or included in a shareable URL. Closing the tab clears them. The copy button lets you keep the result as text.

Is A Lower Total Enough Reason To Change Platforms?

Cost is one part of the choice. Establish whether an alternative provides the functions and customer reach you need, then compare its annual charge with your current arrangement.

What Part Of Booking Does Valacia Handle?

Valacia Business lets customers book directly on your website and confirms each booking by email, without booking commission or a per-booking fee. A deposit carries the published payment fee and no additional booking charge, under clauses 4.3 and 4.8 of the Valacia Terms. Valacia does not exchange bookings with other platforms: when another platform sells a room or table, you must mark it as taken in Valacia Studio.
