Pricing sourced July 2026 · Pre-launch comparison
In short
Turo pays hosts a share of the trip price that depends on their earnings plan. Hosts keep 60% to 90% based on the plan they pick, so Turo takes roughly 10% to 40% of each trip. The lower-percentage plans come with more protection; the higher-percentage ones carry a larger deductible.
Turo vs a flat fee, side by side
| Turo | Bobby (pre-launch) | |
|---|---|---|
| Fee model | Percentage of the trip price | Flat fee per booking |
| Platform take | Roughly 10% to 40% by earnings plan | Flat $1 per booking |
| Who the fee scales with | Grows with the trip price | Fixed, whatever the trip price |
| What the host keeps | 60% to 90% of the trip price | 100% of the trip price |
A worked example
Take a $400 weekend rental.
Turo: On the 60 plan the host keeps 60 percent, so Turo takes $160 of that $400 and the host nets $240.
Bobby (being built): On the flat model Bobby is building, the fee is $1. The host keeps the full $400 and the renter pays $401.
Turo names each earnings plan after the share the host keeps: the 60, 75, 80, 85 and 90 plans. On the 60 plan the host keeps 60 percent of the trip price and Turo takes 40 percent. On the 90 plan the host keeps 90 percent and Turo takes 10, but with a much bigger deductible if something goes wrong. So the host is trading protection for take-home, and Turo's cut runs from about 10 to 40 percent.
Since the cut is a percentage of the trip, it grows with the rental. A longer or pricier trip hands Turo proportionally more, even though its role in the booking has not changed.
A flat per-booking fee pulls the platform charge apart from the trip value. Bobby is being built on a flat $1 per booking added on top of the host's price, so the host keeps 100 percent of the trip price whatever the plan or the rental length.
