Auckland, New Zealand — 10 July 2025
Bookably has launched the Pioneer Pass, granting holiday rental hosts a full year of zero booking commission, a free first listing, and no hidden fees.
“Global booking sites hike margins, put undue financial pressure on hosts and charge high fees to guests. Travelling in New Zealand has become expensive,” said Jovica Mrkela, Founder of Bookably. “We built Bookably to change that and make travel affordable for New Zealanders while ensuring hosting remains fair for holiday rental hosts.”
Holiday rental hosts across New Zealand are invited to visit bookably.nz and take advantage of the Pioneer Pass offering.
Pioneer Pass highlights
– Hosts pay no booking commission for a full year.
– Free property listing with no setup or renewal fees.
– Limited spots available — first-come, first-served.
