Payments & Invoicing
All prices include GST. Current rates are published on our Pricing page and may change with at least 30 days’ notice.
Weekly invoicing: Each week we charge the card on file for the previous week’s Housekeeping cleans and any add‑ons.
Front Desk is charged monthly in advance. Any promotional pricing details are displayed on our website.
Unpaid invoices may lead to suspension of service.
5.
Scheduling & Access
Housekeeping cleans are automatically scheduled via your Airbnb calendar.
Hosts must provide reliable access (lockbox, smart lock, or spare key). A call‑out fee applies if cleaners are unable to enter.
Same‑day or last‑minute cleans are accepted when available and may include a last‑minute fee as per current rates.
6.
Cancellation & Rescheduling
No fee for cleans cancelled before 12 PM the day prior.
Cleans cancelled after that cut‑off may incur a late‑cancellation fee as per current rates.
Front Desk subscriptions can be cancelled any time; service continues to the end of the paid period.
7.
Restocking & Maintenance
Housekeeping flags maintenance issues with photos in the post‑clean report.
Front Desk coordinates trades and follows up until resolution.
For hosts with on‑site supply cupboards, cleaners will restock from host supplies. Otherwise, add‑ons cover restocking.
8.
Satisfaction Guarantee
Report any cleaning issues within 24 hours of guest check‑in and provide photos. If an issue is confirmed, we will organise a complimentary re‑clean. If the matter remains unresolved, we will offer reasonable compensation at our discretion.
9.
Liability & Insurance
Auntybnb holds $1 million in general liability cover. Provide written notice of damage within 24 hours. We are not liable for platform outages, guest misconduct, pre‑existing damage, third‑party service interruptions, loss of income, or events beyond our reasonable control.
10.
Property Condition & Extra Charges
Excessive mess or damage may incur additional fees, which we will quote and seek your approval for before work begins.
11.
User Obligations
Hosts must:
Provide accurate property details and keep calendars updated.
Complete Aunty’s onboarding form and, for Front Desk, the digital guidebook questionnaire.
Maintain necessary turnover time between stays.
12.
Privacy
We use secure scheduling software and an encrypted payment portal to protect your data. Calls and messages may be recorded for quality assurance.
13.
Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by Victorian law. Disputes will be handled through mediation before litigation where possible.
