# Campdirect

> Campdirect gives a small private campsite its own booking website in an afternoon, so guests book and pay the host direct with zero commission and the host keeps every guest. It is a website generator plus a real booking engine (live availability, deposits, card payments), built for farm campsites, glamping hosts, and small family-run campgrounds, not 200-pitch resorts or state parks.

## Key facts

- Zero commission and no per-booking fee. The host keeps 100 percent of every booking and owns the guest relationship (guest email and history).
- Flat monthly pricing, gated by number of bookable campsites (pitches, cabins, glamping units), not by feature. Three tiers, shown in the visitor's currency (GBP, USD, or CAD): Starter (up to 3 campsites, from 29/month), Grow (up to 15 campsites, from 59/month), Pro (up to 40 campsites, from 99/month). Annual billing is the headline rate; month to month is a small premium. More than 40 campsites is a sales conversation.
- 14-day free trial, no card required. A host can be live the same day.
- Every plan includes the full booking engine: own booking website and custom domain, card payments and deposits, live availability calendar, iCal sync, seasonal and weekend rates, discounts and coupons, add-ons store, embeddable booking widget, unlimited team logins. Plans differ only by campsite count and (on Grow and above) a premium guest experience: trip portal, guided check-in, in-portal messaging.
- Double bookings are prevented at the database level (a hard no-overlap guarantee), not by application checks.
- Markets: United Kingdom, United States, Canada.

## How it compares

- vs OTA marketplaces (Hipcamp, Pitchup, Airbnb): those take roughly 12.5 to 20 percent per booking and keep the guest relationship. Campdirect charges a flat monthly fee, takes no commission, and the host keeps the guest.
- vs generic site builders (Wix, Squarespace): those give a page with a contact form; the host still takes bookings by hand and can double book. Campdirect is booking-native with real-time availability and payment.
- vs commission or PMS-heavy tools (Futurestay, Campspot): no commission, no quote-based sales, no enterprise onboarding. Transparent flat pricing and a card-free trial.
