Your host share (also referred to as the host take rate) is the percentage of the trip price and certain guest charges that you receive as earnings.
Under the standard earnings plan in the United States, your host share is 80%. This means you earn 80% of the base trip price, while Sprinter Rentals retains 20% to cover platform services, payment processing, marketing, and operational costs.
What Your Host Share Applies To
Your 80% host share applies to the base trip price of each booking.
What Your Host Share Does Not Apply To (90% to Host)
You receive 90% of the following amounts, regardless of your earnings plan:
- Reimbursements for approved incidental costs (refueling, tickets, tolls, etc.)
- Cleaning or smoking violation fees
- Delivery fees
- Extras (additional paid options chosen by the guest)
Note: Sprinter Rentals retains 100% of all CDW (Collision Damage Waiver) sales.
Cancellation Fee Sharing
When a guest cancels a booking, Sprinter Rentals collects cancellation fees according to our published policy. These fees are shared with hosts as follows:
- For non-refundable bookings, hosts receive up to 80% of successfully collected cancellation fees.
- Sprinter Rentals retains 20% to cover administrative and collection costs.
- Your share of any cancellation fee will appear on your order detail page within 72 hours of collection.
- It may appear as a partial refund if the guest had already paid in full.
Collection Notes
We make every effort to collect cancellation fees, but success is not guaranteed. Some guests may dispute charges with their credit card company. You will only be paid on amounts that are successfully collected.
Host Benefits
- Customer-friendly cancellation policies help encourage earlier bookings.
- You receive the majority share (up to 80%) of cancellation fees.
- No additional effort is required — Sprinter Rentals manages all collection efforts and disputes.
- You receive compensation for lost bookings.
Example
A guest books a 3-day trip for $1,000 and cancels less than 2 days before arrival. They are charged a $500 cancellation fee (50% of the first 5 days). If successfully collected, you receive $400 (80%). If the fee cannot be collected, you receive $0.
