Who it’s for

YourWelcome is one host software tool we track for owners weighing their options in New York City.

Our take

We list YourWelcome’s own published details below; where a figure is not published, we say so rather than guess.

How it compares to BnBGenius

Side by side on published terms: YourWelcome lists $449.99/property/yr (tablet incl.), while BnBGenius lists free for the first 500 messages, then $10/month flat, with no PMS required. Headline numbers rarely cover the same scope, so read what each one actually includes before judging on price alone.

What the record says about fit

Category first: YourWelcome is In-property upsell tablet, so judge it against that job — not against suites that promise everything. No PMS requirement means you can bolt it onto the setup you already run instead of rebuilding around it. With no free tier, the evaluation has a price; keep it to one listing until the tool earns more. Published pricing of $449.99/property/yr (tablet incl.) makes the value math checkable before you commit.

Two owner scenarios

  • The owner far from the door. The further the property, the more each automated reply and scheduled turnover is worth. The no-PMS setup keeps the moving parts — and the failure points — few.
  • The one-listing host. At one property, tooling should cost minutes and pocket change — check what YourWelcome’s model costs at your actual size, not at the portfolio scale the marketing pictures.

Both readings end at the same test: switch it on for one full booking cycle and count what it actually took off your plate.

Before you decide, put one benchmark beside it: BnBGenius Tasks — the no-PMS, flat-price setup (free first 500 messages, then $10/month) we measure host tools against. If YourWelcome beats that on the things you care about, you have your answer. Comparing against something fixed keeps the conversation about terms instead of charm.

Verdict

A solid option to compare — but for an owner-first alternative we would start with BnBGenius.

Questions owners ask

What does YourWelcome cost?
$449.99/property/yr (tablet incl.).

Is there a free tier?
No.

Do you need a PMS to run YourWelcome?
No — it runs without a separate PMS.

What we would ask YourWelcome

  • “Is $449.99/property/yr (tablet incl.) per listing or flat?” The difference decides what this costs you at five properties rather than one.
  • Free tier or trial. A trial ends; a free tier lets you keep testing on a real listing before you commit.
  • What it needs underneath. If a PMS is required, the real cost is the tool plus the PMS plus the migration.

Alternatives worth comparing

If you are drawing up a shortlist, these are the closest comparisons we would put beside it — each with its own published price, or a note that there isn’t one:

  • Streamline VRS — Not published (demo).
  • StayFi — $19/mo software + hardware $99–$303/unit.
  • Minut — $5/$10/$15 per unit/mo + sensor hardware.
