Tax season is here! To help you prepare, we have generated Annual Earnings Reports for 2024 for all Direct Premium users.
The Annual Earnings Report includes all transactions paid out to you by Hospitable in a given calendar year. For each year, you will have a summary PDF report and detailed CSV report for your account, and for each of your payout methods. You can access the Annual Earnings Report here.
If you are based in the US and eligible to receive a form 1099-K from Hospitable, you will receive it by January 31st.
Have questions about the report or US income tax reporting? Join our US Tax Q&A webinar tomorrow, January 21 at 9 AM PT/ 12 PM ET. Register here.

We've changed the Inbox interface on desktop and mobile devices.
On desktop, you'll notice that the message box now appears at the bottom of the conversation. We've also changed the sorting, displaying the newest messages at the bottom of the thread. These changes align our desktop app with our mobile app.
On mobile, the message box is now in a fixed position so you never have to scroll to find it. It's now much easier to see what you're typing and it's easier to select and copy/paste text. We've also reduced the height of the header so you can see more of the conversation. The reservation and guest details sidebars are a quick tap from the header and now display full screen. You'll find the star, translation, and resolve actions in the guest details sidebars.
It's almost the end of the year, and we want to be well-prepared for 2025! We've made a lot of new improvements and also focused on fixing features that users would like to see improved.
