How do i charge overtime?
Last updated on April 20, 2026
If a guest wishes to extend their booking beyond the scheduled end time, it is entirely up to the Host to decide whether to allow it.
You can charge your guest directly for the extra time based on the hourly rate mentioned in your listing. To avoid any confusion, make sure to:
Inform the guest in advance when their booking time is about to end.
Confirm the total additional time they wish to stay.
Communicate the applicable hourly rate or any extra charges clearly.
All overtime or extra hours are to be handled directly between you and the guest, as Spare Space currently does not process additional post-booking payments through the platform.
For record-keeping, it’s a good practice to document the agreed extension in your chat with the guest on Spare Space.
If any disputes arise regarding overtime, please reach out to support@booksparespace.com with the booking details.
