Property partner terms

Listing

You may list a property only if you own it or hold written authority to let it. Listings never publish automatically. We verify the property with you and hold a signed commission agreement before anything appears on the site.

The agreement is signed, not clicked

There is no online sign-up that puts a property live. Submitting the form on our site starts a conversation, nothing more. We then arrange a live video walkthrough, during which you show us the property while we direct where the camera goes, and we ask for identification and proof of your ownership or letting authority.

We send you the commission agreement as a PDF with your agreed rate written into it. You sign it and return it to us. Your listing cannot be published until we hold that signed document — there is no box on this website that accepts these terms on your behalf.

This is deliberate. It is why every property carries the Bounty Verified mark, and why a fabricated listing cannot reach our guests: a property nobody has walked us through, and for which nobody has signed, never gets published.

Accuracy

• Photographs must be of the actual property and reasonably current.
• Amenities, occupancy, staffing and rates must be accurate.
• You must tell us promptly if anything material changes.

Your rate

You tell us the rate you want to receive for your property — your net rate. We market it at a price of our own choosing, which includes our margin. You are never invoiced, there is no listing fee, and there is no charge for enquiries that do not convert.

Your net rate is the one written into the agreement you sign and return to us. It does not change without your agreement in writing.

How you get paid

• The guest pays Bounty Escapes the full price of the stay.
• We confirm the booking with you in writing once we hold that payment.
• We then pay you your agreed net rate, by M-Pesa or bank transfer to the account recorded during verification, and send you the payment reference.
• You never invoice us, never chase a guest, and never carry the risk of a guest failing to pay.

Booking conduct

Guests introduced by Bounty Escapes must be booked through Bounty Escapes. Taking a bookings off-platform to avoid commission, for the same guest and stay, is a breach of these terms and may result in suspension.

Suspension

We may suspend or remove a listing for overdue commission, inaccurate information, unsafe conditions, repeated cancellations or conduct that harms guests. We will tell you why, and you can put it right.

Your obligations

• Hold any licences required by Kenyan law, including Tourism Regulatory Authority licensing where applicable.
• Meet your own tax obligations on income received.
• Honour confirmed bookings and your published cancellation terms.
• Maintain appropriate insurance.

Ending the relationship

Either party may end the arrangement with 30 days’ written notice. Confirmed bookings and commission already earned survive termination.
