Touch Stay built the digital welcome book category in 2014. Their pricing makes sense for property management companies. For indie hosts with 1-3 rentals, paying $99 per property per year is a tax on having a side income.
| After | Guest Guide Pro | Touch Stay |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (1 property) | $49 | $99 |
| 3 years (1 property) | $49 | $297 |
| 5 years (1 property) | $49 | $495 |
| 5 years (3 properties) | $49 (unlimited) | $1,485 |

Yes. Touch Stay is $99 per property per year. Guest Guide Pro is $49 once for unlimited guides. After year one you're already saving $50 per property. After 5 years you've saved $446 per property.
For a host with 1-3 properties, yes: mobile-first guides, WiFi credentials, check-in instructions, house rules, amenities, multi-language for guests. Touch Stay has extras targeted at property management companies (team seats, brand customization at scale) that indie hosts don't need.
Export your content from Touch Stay, sign up at Guest Guide, paste your property details, and republish. Migration takes about 10 minutes per property.
Subscription pricing makes sense at enterprise scale where you have an account manager and ongoing service. For an indie host with a couple of properties, a one-time payment is honest pricing: pay once, use forever.
