As a host, you can turn on long-booking discounts from the app, in My vehicles > Prices and discounts. There are three levels available —10% off on rentals of 3+ days, 15% off on 5+ days and 20% off on 7+ days— and you can activate one, two, all three or none. The higher the discount you turn on, the more visible the promotion badge on your listing, which draws in more drivers.
Here's how they work and how to get the most out of them.
How do I turn on long-booking discounts?
In the app, go to My vehicles > Prices and discounts and turn on the discounts you want to offer.
You can:
Turn on one, two or all three of the available discounts.
Turn on only the one you prefer (for example, just the 7+ days one).
Turn them off at any time, with no restrictions.

Which discounts can I offer, and which bookings do they apply to?
There are three levels available:
10% off on rentals of 3 days or more.
15% off on rentals of 5 days or more.
20% off on rentals of 7 days or more.
These discounts work the same way in Uruguay, Argentina and Mexico.
How is the discount applied if a booking falls into several brackets?
Only the highest discount that matches the number of days booked is applied. Discounts don't stack.
For example, if you have all three turned on and a driver books 7 days, only the 20% applies, not the sum of the three.
How do discounts combine with dynamic pricing?
Long-booking discounts combine with dynamic pricing. Both tools work at the same time: dynamic pricing adjusts the daily rate according to demand, and the discount for the length of the booking is applied on top of that rate.
If you want to know more about the other tool, see How do dynamic prices work.
How do drivers see the discount?
When you turn on a discount, your car shows a promotion badge in search results. The badge shown is always the one for the highest discount you have active.
That badge brings more drivers to your listing, because it says at a glance that your car has an offer running.
Is it worth turning on discounts if they lower my daily rate?
Yes. Even though the price per day is lower, your total income goes up, for two reasons:
Bookings are longer, so you take in more per booking even if each day earns a little less.
Your car becomes more competitive and is better presented next to the others, which brings more bookings overall.
In most cases, turning on all three discounts tends to be the most profitable strategy over the medium term.
Are there other discounts on TripWip besides the long-booking ones?
Yes. From time to time, TripWip runs temporary discounts on special dates. The important part: those discounts are covered by TripWip out of the company's margin, they are not taken out of the host's income.
In other words: when a TripWip promotion is running, you get more bookings without your margin being reduced.
