Experience Publication in 3 Steps

  • Creating experiences

    You can easily create an experience simply by entering the name, explanation, photos, etc. in the form and pressing the publish button.

  • Publish experiences

    Once the experience is published on the site, let's gather participants by sharing them on SNS. You can also receive notifications every time you make a reservation.

About Fees

Host registration and experience introduction page are free. It is a mechanism that requires a sales commission only when a reservation is made in the experience, and the sales commission rate is 18% of the set price. The remaining 82% will be transferred to the registered account in the month following the month of the event.

A self attracted customers are not via aini platforms, but to make reservations using their friends and acquaintances networks and their own SNS. In the case of reservations by self attracting customers, the sales fee will be 0%.

The repeat discount is that guests who have participated at least once in the hosting experience are recognized as repeaters, and the sales fee will be 0%in all reservations of the host.

The amount actually paid by the guest is the amount in which the service fee is added to the price set by the host. If the campaign or discount benefits are applied, the guest's payment will fluctuate each time, but there is no effect on the host's reward.

Reservation request system

Guests who are interested in your experience can directly receive requests for the date, making it easier to adjust the schedule.

Reservation approval system

Before you make a reservation, you can set an approval step on the host. If you turn on the approval step, you can check your profile in advance what person wants to participate, and you can accept reservations only for trusted guests.

Limited release of the venue

You can set a photo that only the reserved person can see, and use it to inform guests the appearance of the venue and the meeting place. In addition, detailed addresses can be contacted only by reservations using the group function, so those who want to hold them at home can post the experience with confidence.

Setting the maximum and minimum number of people

It is possible to set the number of people such as "You can participate up to maximum person" or "◯ If you make a reservation". We support the smooth progress of the experience by controlling the ideal participating guests.

Price setting and payment
Various price settings

In addition to the basic experience fee, you can set an option fee that can only be purchased by applicants, expanding the range of expression of the experience. In addition, since you can set the fee in detail by the age group of the participating guests, it is possible to set an age group that does not accept by not setting the fee.

Set a fixed deadline for the experience

When a fixed deadline is set, the system automatically decides whether to cancel the event or confirm it based on the number of reservations and the number of guests who have actually made reservations. The deadline for confirming the event is also the deadline for guest cancellations, so that even if a guest cancels after the deadline has passed, the reward is guaranteed.

Collecting money from guests and paying remuneration

The experience fee is received by aini from the guest prior to the event, eliminating the need to exchange money directly with the guest and preventing financial problems. In addition, once an account is registered, the remuneration is automatically transferred to your account, preventing any omission of money collection.

Connecting function
Review function

Guests who have participated in the experience can give us comments of appreciation in the form of "experience reviews" and we can improve the experience based on the comments. The more reviews you receive, the more likely you are to receive reservations. Hosts also have a mutual review function to evaluate guests in the form of "guest reviews," allowing them to learn more about the guests personalities before they join, so they can approve reservations with peace of mind.

Follow up program

    Hosts are free to decide their own price. We will apply 18% of the price you decide as a commission rate, and pay you the remaining 82% as a reward.

The actual purchase price may differ from the price determined by the host.
