so does this mean it is doable or not? I doubt it will actually be "free" forever. What Goog will likely do is offer free initially to make all accommodations providers flock to it. Once it cannibali…

5-8% I may consider ( as I am also paying 3% cc fee). 14% is a flat no. What is going to happen is that owners (me for example) will raise their rates by as much to cover the commission, and nothing …
