MinpakuXFor homes, minshuku and small inns

Host more. Run less.

Minpaku X brings travellers to your door, runs everything behind each booking, and puts you among hosts across Japan.

Earn

Turn empty nights into income.

Travellers find you on Minpaku X, in English and Japanese, and Pass holders come looking for their next house. Your own booking site takes stays on the same engine. Prices follow the calendar: weekends, holidays, local events (Pro).

+8.6% daily revenue for hosts who adopted automated pricing, in a peer-reviewed study.1

Hand it over

Leave the admin to the system.

Messages answered from templates in the traveller's language. The guest register filled in online and kept encrypted. The two-monthly report to the prefecture, filled in for you. Receipts with your invoice number, the town's tax, the month closed.

6–12 hours a month back for a one-home host. Our estimate; we'll measure it with our founding hosts.2

Belong

Never host alone.

An online yoriai every month, a gathering each season in a different region, and a circle of hosts inside the console.

One booking, everything follows

  1. Booking. From Minpaku X, your own site or Airbnb, it arrives in one place.
  2. Calendars. That night closes on every channel, and the 180-night count moves on its own.
  3. Payment. Paid by card or Apple Pay; the receipt goes out with your invoice number.
  4. Welcome. The house guide goes out in the traveller's language, and the register is filled in online.
  5. Cleaning. The turnover lands on your cleaner's LINE, with the checklist and space for photos.
  6. The books. Payment costs, cleaning, linen and the town's tax post to the month's profit and loss.
  7. What's next. A review request, the report lines, and a price suggestion for next month.

  • The platform fee is a share of each stay booked through Minpaku X: on the marketplace, or on your own Minpaku X site.
  • Stays synced in from Airbnb, Booking.com, Rakuten Travel or Jalan, and stays you enter yourself, carry no platform fee.
  • It is worked out on the stay's price before consumption tax, not counting the town's accommodation or bathing tax.

On every plan: the monthly yoriai, set-up with a person, cancel any month, export everything.
