Arrow Pointing DownPrepaid Reservation Fee

When you sell a reservation that has a prepaid fee AT takes a commission on that fee. This doesn’t really make sense because it’s an expense the seller incurs not part of the profit that is shared.

For example:
Carbone NYC fee to book table for 2 is $108.88

If you sell it for $200 on AT you get $140 from them.

Your net profit is $31 and AT collects $60 in fees.

It would make more sense not to charge commission on the upfront fee as this creates a disincentive and results in higher costs for buyers.

Best AnswerAgreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Does this question ever get addressed? Seems a little aggressive for a 66% cut for AT and a 33% cut for the seller

Can't wait to see another post like this AGAIN next month, AND the month after that and the month after that.

@BraveCloth47: I guess you didn't even have to wait a 'month' :)

Yeah you see bids for Carbone for tables for 4 people for $230. Well the per-person deposit is $50. So after the commission, you'd be spending money to fill the reservation.
