About Mates

Great stays deserve
a second look.

The place you discover on Airbnb may have its own booking website. We think that option should be easier to find.

Why we’re here

One stay.
More than one way to book.

Mates & Me helps travellers discover the direct booking option for a property they’re already interested in.

Our Chrome extension, Mates Rates Check, brings connected direct sites into your Airbnb search. Its calculator helps you compare the total you see on the direct site with the Airbnb total.

Sometimes the direct price is lower. Sometimes Airbnb is. The point is to make the choice clearer, with the same dates, guests and currency in view.

For hosts and property managers, Mates offers another way for travellers to discover an existing direct booking website.

Useful connections.

We focus on connecting the same property across booking websites, so travellers have another option to check.

Clear comparisons.

A connected site is a starting point. Actual totals, fees and booking terms are what matter when you decide.

Your booking. Your choice.

You book with your chosen provider. Mates doesn’t take over the booking or payment.

Before you book your next stay

A quick check.
A clearer choice.

Bring Mates along on your next Airbnb search.
