Hostshare Max Membership

Written by Faith W

Price: $799/year (Founding Members: $395/year, locked forever)

Max is Hostshare's top tier — the biggest nights grant, the largest credit balance, and the full platform experience. It's built for hosts who travel frequently and want to maximize what they get from every stay.

What you get:

  • 21 nights upfront + 3 additional nights per extra listing, never expire

  • $1,000 in credits on signup — enough to cover the Hostshare service fee across multiple trips

  • Membership-level share contract (one contract across all your listings)

  • Nights bank indefinitely — every year you renew, a fresh 21-night grant stacks on top of your existing balance

  • At annual renewal: fresh 21-night grant added, share contract resets

  • Full access to search and book across the 6-month window

The "only pay for cleaning" math:

A Max member with $1,000 in credits will offset the Hostshare service fee entirely across several trips. Combined with your annual membership fee, in practice you're paying for membership upfront and then just covering cleaning at each stay — which has always been the Hostshare promise.

Share contract:

Calculated at the membership level across all listings:

Share Nights = ROUND( (21 × Platform Avg Rate) ÷ Your Avg Rate )

Multiple listings: base increases by 3 per listing, uses blended average rate, split proportionally. To learn more about your share contract, see this help article -->.

Earning additional nights (Optional Nights):

Once your share contract is fulfilled, Optional Nights unlocks — share more to earn more.

Founding Members:

If you joined Hostshare before the 2.0 launch, you're a Founding Member — a special status that stays with you for life:

  • Permanently locked at $395/year, regardless of any future Max price changes

  • All current and future Max features included

  • Founding Member badge displayed on your profile, visible in search and messaging

  • $1,000 in credits if blockout dates were set by the migration deadline; $100 if not

  • Night balance reset to 21 + 3 per additional listing at migration

  • All future Max feature improvements included automatically

Founding Member pricing is only available to members who joined before 2.0 launched. This path is now closed to new members.

Downgrading from Max:

Downgrades take effect at end of your billing cycle. At downgrade to Pro, all granted nights and credits are forfeited and a fresh Pro grant (+11 nights, +$100 credits) is added. Your earned nights and earned credits are always kept. You'll see exactly what you're giving up before confirming — this cannot be undone.
