Keep every dollar of every direct stay.
Direct bookings carry no per-booking fee from Accommador — ever; the only commission you escape is the OTA's 15–25%.
Direct bookings
Your brand. Your domain. Every dollar of the booking.
Most booking widgets just record a reservation. Accommador's engine is built to convert one — on your own site, in your own brand, with no per-booking fee taken from you, ever.
- Commission-free direct bookings — no per-booking fee, ever
- Stays on your own web domain
- Mobile-first checkout
The problem
You did the hard part. You paid for the ad, earned the click, got the guest onto your site. Then your booking widget sent them to a checkout that looked nothing like you — and they hesitated.
A hesitation is a lost booking. The guest drifts back to an OTA, books the same room, and now you're paying 15–25% commission on a guest you already won.
That's not a traffic problem. That's a conversion leak — and a bolt-on widget that only "takes a reservation" was never built to plug it.
The Accommador way
A standalone booking widget has one job: record that a room got booked.
It bolts onto your site, looks generic, and treats checkout as paperwork.
Accommador's booking engine has a different job: turn the guest you already paid for into a confirmed, paid stay — on your turf. It runs on your own web domain, wrapped in your logo, hero, colours and terms, so the guest never feels they left your site. No stranger's branding. No detour. No commission skimmed off the top.
It's the difference between a form that catches a booking and an engine engineered to win one.
How it works
From signup to a converting page
- 01
We brand it as yours.
Your domain, logo, hero imagery, colours and booking terms — the checkout is unmistakably your property, start to finish.
- 02
The guest holds the room while they pay.
Hold-then-confirm keeps that room theirs during checkout, so it can't be sold out from under them mid-payment.
- 03
Abandoned holds auto-release.
Walk away and the room quietly returns to your availability — no manual cleanup, no phantom bookings clogging your calendar.
- 04
You choose the funnel.
Flexible mode runs a standard hotel-style booking flow; restricted mode enforces strict stay rules for lodges, houseboats and cabins. Same engine, your rules.
What you get
Everything this feature gives you
Convert more of the traffic you already paid for.
A mobile-first, conversion-optimised checkout meets guests where most of them book — on a phone — and removes the friction that sends them back to an OTA.
Stop losing rooms during payment.
Hold-then-confirm secures the room while the guest pays, so two guests never fight over the last cabin at the checkout screen.
A calendar that cleans itself.
Abandoned holds auto-release back into availability, so you're never chasing ghost reservations or manually freeing rooms.
Guests who trust the page they're on.
Your domain and your brand end-to-end means no jarring hand-off to a stranger's checkout — the single biggest reason guests bail.
One engine for every property type.
Flexible mode for a standard funnel, or restricted mode for strict stay-rule enforcement on lodges, houseboats and cabins.
Bonus capability:
the same engine can win the minimum-stay "impossible" search that standard calendars reject — see Alternative Date Search.
Why it's different
Built for the whole loop, not one box
Most tools
Most booking engines: a bolt-on widget that records a reservation, often on a hand-off page that looks nothing like you — and the more "free" ones quietly clip a per-booking fee.
Accommador
Accommador: a conversion-built engine on your own domain, in your brand, commission-free — and it's one link in a closed loop. The marketing drives the traffic, this engine converts it, payments collect it, and it all self-reconciles into Xero. PMS players have an engine but no marketing to feed it; marketing tools have no engine to catch what they drive. Accommador owns the whole loop.
a typical 30-room operator pays $900–$1,500+ per month across six-to-nine disconnected tools — before a cent of un-tracked ad spend. The engine that converts your traffic shouldn't be one more line item that takes a cut.

Stop stitching six tools together
Most operators run a channel manager, a PMS, a booking engine, an email tool, an SMS tool, a reviews tool, a social scheduler and a site builder — six to nine subscriptions, none of them talking to each other. Accommador replaces all of it, from $500 AUD/mo per location.
