Subject: A More Competitive Cancellation Policy — With Your Income Protected

Dear [Owner Name],

We’re writing to share an update to our cancellation policy designed to make your listing more competitive without sacrificing income stability.

Why we’re making this change

Guest behavior has changed. Flexible cancellation is now one of the strongest drivers of visibility and bookings across major platforms. Listings that don’t offer flexibility are increasingly filtered out—regardless of quality or price.

At the same time, we know predictable income matters. Flexibility should never mean absorbing unnecessary risk.

What’s changing for guests

Going forward, guests will be able to cancel up to 7 days prior to arrival for a full refund. This aligns your property with the most competitive listings in the market and improves booking performance without relying on discounts or promotions.

How your income is protected

To support this change, we’ve implemented built-in booking income protection through a program called Roam.

In practical terms:

This allows us to offer flexibility confidently—without exposing owners to last-minute cancellation risk.

What this means for you
