What is the base rate?
Base rate refers to the amount hotels receive from each booking after subtracting Agoda’s compensation from the total amount paid by the guest, which is the sell rate.
How am I charged for compensation?
Compensation is the amount paid by the property to Agoda for Agoda’s services. The compensation amount is charged automatically by deducting the compensation amount from the total booking value before we make a payment to you.
Example of a rate breakdown calculation:
To understand how to calculate your base rate, let’s look at an example below.
| Label | Component | Description | Value |
| A | Rate loaded on YCS as Sell Inclusive | Original rate without promotions in YCS | $100 |
| B | Reference Sell Rate (incl. taxes & fees) | Total amount paid by the guest | $100 |
| C | Promotion | Promotion provided by property to guest | 10% |
| D | Compensation Rate | Compensation paid by property to Agoda | 20% |
| Without Promotion | |||
| E | Rate loaded on YCS | A | $100 |
| F | (-) Compensation Rate (20%) | D | $20 |
| G | Base Rate to Property | E – F | $80 |
| With Promotion | |||
| H | Rate loaded on YCS | A | $100 |
| I | (-) Promotion (10%) | H x C | $10 |
| J | Reference Sell Rate (incl. taxes & fees) | H – I | $90 |
| K | (-) Compensation Rate (20%) | J x D | $18 |
