The Right to Rent Collaborative is a community of property managers working together to protect vacation rental homeowners’ right to rent. With the Right to Rent Program, you can collect a nominal $2 per reservation from your guests and automatically donate it to Right to Rent monthly. The enrollment process is easy and quick, but your impact will be long-lasting.
Steps for Integration
1. Enroll in the Right to Rent Program and be sure to enter a phone number to receive verification text messages.
2. Once the form is completed, you’ll receive an email from Support@R2RCollaborative.org. Click the button in the email to Complete Your PMS Connection.
3. Clicking the button in the email will open this window to securely connect OwnerRez using OAuth. Click Authorize to initiate. This connection will provide select property and booking data to Right to Rent to automatically calculate your monthly donation based on applicable reservations’ checkout dates.
4. After authorization, you will automatically be directed to Stripe to enter your payment details. Stripe is Right to Rent’s donation payment processor. You can manually enter a card or connect to Stripe using an existing Link account.
5. Once you’ve saved a payment method, you will be redirected to a confirmation page and receive a confirmation email that you are successfully enrolled.
6. Your contribution will be automatically calculated each month based on reservation checkouts, collected via the payment method you entered in Stripe, and directed to support advocacy efforts that defend and expand fair vacation rental regulations in your backyard and across the country. Thank you!
7. Remember to add the $2 fee to your reservations so you can collect it from your guests (if you choose to do so). We recommend rolling this into your existing per-reservation admin fees. If you prefer to list this as a separate line item, please use the fee name VR Stewardship Fund. See OwnerRez's Surcharges Overview support article to learn more.
8. Both the confirmation page and email will include a link to your exclusive R2R manager badge! Place the badge anywhere it will help build brand trust. We suggest:
- Your website footer
- Your prospect recruitment landing pages
- Your About page
- Your printed handouts and mailers
- Your email footers and signatures
- Your social media page cover images
Where links are possible, please link the badge to R2RCollaborative.org.
