Equality is something we should all strive for in all aspects of life. But your property costs money to own and operate. Taxes, utilities, and general wear adds up quickly over time. So, access limits are a good thing because not all friends and family are the same. Like an acquaintance that would have stayed at a hotel can obviously afford to reimburse you for some nightly basic household costs and the cleaning fee that you get charged. Whereas your elderly mom could pay the same, but would your really charge her? Simplifying these ideas is the goal of having a few easy to use user roles available for any property on Stayy.
You can set user roles individually when you invite them or change roles on your guest list page as needed. More on inviting guests. You can also set guests to be socially visible or anonymous to each other.
User Roles:
Property owner:
You, as the person that added the property to Stayy, are the property “owner”. Regardless of whether you own the physical property. Only the owner can setup and manage the connected payment account needed to receive income or reimbursements from guests.
Guest:
The simple Guest role has its own settings for pricing.
Family:
Family is essentially the same as any other Guest, but can have its own unique pricing.
Manager:
Managers can have their own pricing for stays, but also have access to all property settings (except payments), property status, and the property guest list.
Member:
Members are an additional guest type role you can choose to use if you need it – (set this from your property edit page).
Members start with a monthly subscription or one time payment to become a member of your property. Once activated they will have access to your property scheduling calendar. Just like the other family or guest roles, members can have their own pricing details. If you choose to allow it, members can also invite their own guests under the guest role settings. Members’ guests will lose access to your property if their membership lapses or reaches its preset end date. You can then create a new membership and all will be instantly reinstated, otherwise members without an active membership will be limited to a “view only” status and not be able to access your property calendar or schedule time.
