GoHighLevel Rental Booking Fees Made Simple

Rental Booking Fees now have a dedicated setup inside GoHighLevel Rentals. You can create separate charges for cleaning, service, resort, or damage waiver fees instead of adding them into the main rental price.

You can create a fee once, set the amount, choose flat or percentage pricing, and add tax if needed. That same fee can then be used across several listings, which helps keep pricing simple and consistent.

You can also change a Rental Booking Fee for one listing without changing the main fee template. Customers see the fees before checkout, and each charge appears clearly on the invoice.

Before this update, extra rental charges were harder to manage cleanly. In many cases, businesses had to build those costs into the main rental price or find another way to account for them. Rental Booking Fees now give you a proper place to manage these charges inside GHL.

You can now create reusable fee templates and apply them to more than one listing. If one property or rental needs a different amount, you can change that fee for the listing without changing the main template.

The customer side is clearer too. GHL shows the added fees before checkout and lists them separately on the invoice. You can also apply tax to a fee on its own, which makes pricing and reporting easier to follow.

Rental Booking Fees give rental businesses a cleaner way to charge for costs that should not be part of the base price. Things like cleaning, service, resort, or damage waiver fees can now be shown as separate charges, which makes the total easier to understand.

This also helps when you manage more than one listing. You can reuse the same fee across several rentals, then adjust the amount only where needed. That means less setup work and fewer pricing mistakes.

For customers, the main benefit is simple. They can see the full cost before checkout, with Rental Booking Fees shown clearly instead of appearing as a surprise later. That can reduce confusion and make the booking process feel more straightforward.

Setting up Rental Booking Fees in GoHighLevel gives you a simple way to manage required charges for your rental listings. You can create and edit fees, choose how they are charged, then attach them to the listings where they should apply.

Here are the steps we will follow:

• Open Calendar Settings.
• Open the Additional Fees area.
• Set Up the Rental Booking Fee
• Review the fee amount.
• Open the rental listing.
• Add the Fee to the Listing.

To start, make sure you are logged in to the correct GoHighLevel sub-account.

• This opens the main Rentals area.

2.2 Click Additional Fees.

• This opens the list of Rental Booking Fees already created in your account.

2.3 Click the edit icon beside the fee you want to update.

• You can also use the + New additional fee button if you want to create a new fee instead.

• The fee editor gives you control over the name, status, pricing method, amount, pricing unit, and tax settings.

3.1 Enter or review the Name of the fee.

• Use a clear name that customers can understand.
• Examples include Cleaning Fee, Service Fee, or Damage Waiver.

3.2 Choose the Status.

• Select Active when you want the fee available for use.

3.3 Choose the Payment Type.

• Select Fixed Amount if you want to charge a set amount.

3.4 Enter the fee amount.

• Add the dollar amount or percentage you want to charge.

3.5 Choose how the fee will be charged.

• Per Booking applies one fixed charge to the booking.
• Per Booking Unit charges the fee for each rental period used by the listing.

For example, if the rental unit is set to one day, a Per Booking Unit fee is charged for each day of the booking.

3.6 Click Configure Tax if tax needs to be applied to the fee.

• This lets you manage tax separately from the main rental price.

3.7 Click Save Changes.

• Your updated Rental Booking Fee is now saved.

• After saving the fee, GoHighLevel returns you to the Additional Fees list.

4.1 Check the Price column beside the fee.

• Confirm that the amount shown matches the fee you just created or updated.
• It is a good idea to check the price before attaching the fee to a listing. This helps catch a simple setup mistake before it reaches the booking page.

• Once the fee is ready, the next step is to attach it to the correct rental listing.

5.1 Click Listings from the Rentals menu.

• This opens all rental listings in your account.

5.2 Click the edit icon beside the listing you want to update.

6.2 Scroll down to the Additional Fees section.

• This section shows any fees already attached to the listing.

6.3 Click + Additional Fee.

• You can now select an existing Rental Booking Fee and attach it to the listing.

Once the fee is attached, it becomes part of the required booking charges for that rental. Customers can see the added fee during the booking process, which keeps the final price clear before checkout.

Keep your Rental Booking Fees easy to understand. Use clear names like Cleaning Fee, Service Fee, or Damage Waiver so customers know what they are paying for.

Use one global fee when the same charge applies to several listings. If one rental needs a different amount, use the listing-level override instead of creating a second fee.

Always test the booking flow after you change pricing or tax settings. Check the total, review the fee line item, and make sure the amount looks right before customers start booking.

Rental Booking Fees give you more control over pricing without making the booking process harder to manage. A short-term rental can add a cleaning fee, while an equipment rental can add a damage waiver or service fee. Each charge stays separate from the base rental price.

This is useful when you manage several listings. You can reuse the same fee across different rentals, then adjust the amount only where needed. That saves time and helps keep your pricing more consistent.

The biggest benefit is a cleaner customer experience. Customers can see the required fees before checkout, so the final price is easier to understand. For agencies and rental businesses using GHL, that means less manual work and fewer questions about unexpected charges.

Rental Booking Fees should make your pricing easier to manage across different rentals. You can keep the base rental price separate from charges like cleaning, service, or damage waiver fees, which helps keep your setup more organized.

You can also save time by reusing the same fee across several listings. If one rental needs a different amount, you can adjust that listing without changing the main fee for every other rental.

For customers, the biggest result is clearer pricing. They can see the added fees before checkout, and the charges appear as separate items on the invoice. That makes the final cost easier to understand and gives your team a cleaner way to manage rental pricing inside GHL.

Rental Booking Fees give you a cleaner way to manage required charges inside GoHighLevel Rentals. You can create reusable fees, choose how they are charged, apply tax, and attach them to the right listings without changing the base rental price.

For businesses with several rentals, this can save time and keep pricing more consistent. Customers also get a clearer view of what they are paying before checkout, which helps avoid confusion.

If you use GHL Rentals, this is a useful update to test on one listing first. Once the setup looks right, you can roll the same fee structure out across the rest of your rentals.
