StayDock vs Uplisting: which fits 1–20 rentals?

18 September 2026 · 4 min read · Jacob Huber

Uplisting is a genuinely nice product: modern, reliable and focused on the main channels rather than trying to do everything. It's one of the fairer comparisons for StayDock, so here's where the two actually differ.

The short version

Both aim at hosts who want things to just work. Uplisting is established and priced per property with plan tiers; StayDock is early access, flat per rental, and free until your channels go live.

Pricing model

Uplisting charges a monthly fee per property, with tiers that unlock extra features and a minimum spend on smaller portfolios (as of September 2026 — check their site). StayDock charges €9 per rental per month, cheaper as you add more, with no feature tiers and no commission on any booking.

Where Uplisting is genuinely stronger

  • Live, proven channel connections today — StayDock's are still being connected.
  • A mature direct-booking engine and guest-experience tooling.
  • A track record and support team you can lean on from day one.

Where StayDock is different

  • One plan with nothing locked behind a higher tier.
  • Flat per-rental pricing that gets cheaper as you grow, never a percentage.
  • An AI assistant as the main way to get things done.
  • You pay nothing until your channels are actually working.

Who should pick which

Choose Uplisting if you need channels live today and want a proven team behind you. Choose StayDock if you like the flat pricing, want a simpler daily workflow, and are happy to join early and shape the product.

Try StayDock while it's early.

Add your rentals in a couple of minutes and pay nothing until your channels are connected — then it's a flat €9 per rental per month, with 0% commission on every booking.
