Earn beyond bookings with ASTRO.
Layer vendor savings, art placements, and referral incentives on top of the nights you already host.
ASTRO rewires the economics for verified STR owners: national vendor pricing without the sales gauntlet, revenue shares when you host pop-up retail or AArtners exhibits, and referral bounties when you bring in aligned owners. It’s owner-led, transparent, and designed to put money back into your operations.
- Switch to curated vendor contracts and see savings in the next billing cycle.
- Host AArtners drops or sponsor placements that earn even when you’re vacant.
- Collect Travelcoin and referral incentives for growing the network.

Your owner revenue stack
Every pillar in the Earn program is modular—start with the savings that move the needle now and add new streams when your calendar or markets shift.
Vendor Marketplace
Insurance, linens, maintenance, and software negotiated at national scale so you keep the delta. Live calculators show real dollars saved each month.
AArtners & Placements
Rotate sponsored art, QR-enabled retail, and culinary collaborations that pay out every sale while giving guests a reason to remember your stay.
Referral & Ambassador
Earn Travelcoin or cash when you bring qualified owners, vendors, or markets into ASTRO. Transparent tiers and quarterly bonus windows.
Revenue channels you can turn on now
Pick the channel that matches your audience and property layout. ASTRO handles supplier contracts, merchandising, and reconciliation.
Vendor Marketplace
Switch suppliers without renegotiating
Insurance, restock, cleaning, design, and software partners with bulk rates. Upload invoices, receive delta reports, and roll savings into Travelcoin or cash.
AArtners
Turn blank walls into revenue
ASTRO ships insured artwork, manages NFC tags, and pays you 20% every time a guest buys. Optional sponsor underwriting for premium pieces.
Referral Network
Get rewarded for growing the owners’ network
