Adding an extra guest fee
Your place is set up to accommodate a certain number of guests, but maybe you’re OK with adding more if it brings in a little extra cash. Perhaps you’ve got an air mattress in the closet and a few extra essentials on hand—so why not?
You can add a fee for each guest you’re willing to put up beyond your normal limit. So, if the number of guests you’ve set in the Listing editor is 4, you can charge extra for the 5th and 6th guests and so on up to your comfort level.

Your new fee only applies to future reservations. If you want to add an extra guest fee to a confirmed reservation, you’ll need to send your guest a trip change to adjust the price.
