The Problem

Ukrainian wellness market is stuck in 2010s technology

8 of 8 depend on Booking.com (13-15% commission)
How Guests Book Today
  • 1. Search on Booking.com or Google
  • 2. Call the property by phone
  • 3. Negotiate dates and services manually
  • 4. Transfer money to a bank card

How the Platform Earns

Four possible pricing models — each property chooses the combination that fits. Baseline uses pessimistic assumptions.

A. Transaction-only

No monthly fee. Platform takes 3-5% of every booking. Low barrier to entry — property pays only when they earn.

B. Flat subscription

Fixed $500-1,500/mo for the full platform. No transaction fees. Predictable for the client, predictable for us.

C. Hybrid (sub + txn)

Lower subscription $300-700/mo + reduced transaction fee 1-2%. Balances risk for both sides.

D. Setup + modules

One-time setup $5-10K + optional AI add-ons $200-500/mo each. Property buys only what it needs.

Scenario (pessimistic baseline) Per property / year 5 clients 15 clients Payback period
A. Txn-only (3% on $150K GMV) $4,500 $22.5K $67.5K 5-6 years
B. Flat sub ($500/mo) $6,000 $30K $90K 3-4 years
C. Hybrid ($300/mo + 1.5% on $150K) $5,850 $29.3K $87.8K 3-5 years
B + D. Sub ($500/mo) + setup ($5K) + 1 AI module ($200/mo) $8,400 + $5K setup $67K yr1 $201K yr1 1.5-2 years
C + D. Hybrid + setup ($5K) + 2 AI modules ($400/mo) $10,650 + $5K setup $78.3K yr1 $234.8K yr1 1-1.5 years
Pessimistic assumptions: $150K annual GMV per property (small resort, 50% occupancy, low season weighted). Lowest fee tiers. No premium add-on upsell except where stated. Platform dev cost: $120K. Monthly platform operating cost: $800/mo.   Even the worst-case single-stream model (A) covers operating costs at 5 clients.
