Why host with us
One platform for discovery and the work that happens after the booking.
Many independent providers are visible to guests in one place, then forced to manage rent, deposits, utilities, proof of payment, maintenance, tenant messages, and owner reports somewhere else. OPLANLA brings those workflows together so the public listing and the private operation support each other.
Local visibility
Represent smaller, overlooked, and flexible accommodation options alongside city, tourism, rental, and extended-stay demand.
Operational clarity
Keep balances, invoices, rates, pending payments, messages, jobs, and reports in the same workspace.
Provider-side features
Built for listings, rentals, and day-to-day property management.
Bookings and calendar sync
Manage short-stay bookings, update booking records, block date ranges, import external calendars, and export iCal feeds.
Enquiries and tenant leads
Respond to enquiries, mark promising guests as potential tenants, and request document uploads for rental screening.
Payments and proof reviews
Track payments, review pending proof of payment uploads, verify receipts, manage payout details, and download payment reports.
Utilities and Motla imports
Configure electricity and water rates, support fixed, flat, measured, and tiered billing, preview Motla CSV readings, and dispatch utility invoices.
Maintenance desk
Receive tenant maintenance requests, assign tickets to maintenance users, track job status, and view completion updates.
Tenant management
Maintain tenant records, room assignments, balances, messages, document reviews, and rental workflows inside the provider hub.
Messages and notices
Message tenants directly, receive unread message alerts, and send bulk notices to selected rooms or tenants.
Reports and owner controls
Use portfolio summaries, payment exports, CSV and PDF reports, Google review settings, and configurable property manager commission tracking.
Commercial model
Clear pricing for marketplace and management workflows.
The model separates guest bookings, rental placements, and the provider operations suite, so providers can understand what they are paying for and why.
