Why post your listing on MediaVacationRentals.com?

The "Performance" listing benefits from:

• Freedom of communication with the tenant (access to their contact details including telephone number),
• Freedom of payment method (direct payment or using the "Secure Payment" service),
• Optional access to the Secure Payment service for online rental payments at a reduced rate of 3% total including taxes instead of 9.6%,
• Performance Guarantee : 700 visits to your listing per year. Free continuation for 1 year if this quota is not achieved.

It is subject to an annual subscription. See prices.

The "Zen" listing benefits from:

• No service (commission) charges,
• A commission rate of 9.6%, much lower than many other options in the property rental domain,
• The Secure Payment service (online rental payments on the site once an agreement has been reached with the tenant),
• The possibility to upgrade to the "Performance" plan whenever you wish.

For reasons linked to payment security, rental payments are required to be made online (via the Secure Payment service).

"Performance" and "Zen" listings allow you to showcase your rental: distance from the slopes or the beach, 30 photos, maps, tourist highlights nearby etc.

The "Performance" and "Zen" listings both benefit from automatic translation into the majority of European languages (French, English, German, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese). They are published on the European MediaVacationRentals.com network websites as well as the sites of international partners (HomeToGo, Likibu etc.).

The visibility options "Premium Option", "Top Position Service" and "Special offers and last minute deals" are available for "Performance" and "Zen" listings. You can manage your listing as you wish, whenever you please, in order to boost visibility.

To protect owners from negative and unfair reviews and in order to remain objective, MediaVacationRentals.com has put in place a quality control procedure for negative reviews. This procedure aims to:

1. Verify any problems raised, particularly with previous tenants,
2. Put in place, where required, corrective and informative action in order to guarantee the satisfaction of future tenants.

The "Secure Payment" service allows your tenants to pay via MediaVacationRentals.com and automatically manage your bookings. In just a few clicks you can issue a booking form and await the payment to be transferred to your bank account. You are, of course, able to communicate freely with the tenant before offering a reservation. This service also avoids you giving out your bank details. It also offers the following functions:

• Completely automatic booking process (calendar update, transfer of balance etc),
• Publication of a signed contract in two languages if the tenant is from another country,
• The lowest costs on the market:
  • "Performance" listings (subscription): 3% of rental
  • "Zen" listings (no subscription): 9.6% of rental

Holiday rental advertisers are often subject to attempted fraud, scams or identify theft. The MediaVacationRentals site is widely recognised for its efforts in this area and for the reliability of its security systems, often unique in the market.

Moreover, we inform our owners regularly of any fraudulent activity that may be of concern and of the necessary ways to act.

The Secure Mailbox is a unique tool allowing you to communicate securely with tenants. This tool, popular with our owners, can detect a significant majority of potentially fraudulent activity (phishing, spam, hacking etc.)

Its use is obligatory for "Zen" listings and strongly recommended (for written communication) within "Performance" listings.

MediaVacationRentals has a series of functions in place to protect the hacking of your account: double authentification (Security + service), security questioning etc.

Whilst a number of websites implement a commission rate of above 20% which detracts from the spirit of direct owner-tenant rentals, MediaVacationRentals.com maintains a reasonable pricing scale in the interests of owners and tenants.

Automatic subscription renewals, automatic reservation before the approval of the owner ("instant booking"), pressure to adhere to more profitable options... we totally refuse to adopt certain sales techniques that aim to constrain owners - our ethos is to respect owners' freedom. Our owners are free to take control: payment method, reservation conditions, selection of tenants etc.

All you need to do is search the internet for "MediaVacationRentals reviews" to realise that our owners are generally satisfied with our platform's services.
