The published facts, in plain English
Avantio is Agency-grade PMS. It lists its pricing as From €14/property/mo, €295/mo min (<20 props). There is no free tier. It sits on top of a property-management system, so you need a PMS as well. Scale: mid.
Data-desk note: Zero-commission per-property; €295 min means 20+ units only (Planet-owned).
Who it’s for
Avantio suits owners with mid-sized to large portfolios, particularly those already using a PMS and seeking advanced agency-grade features. It is geared towards higher volume operations due to its minimum fee structure.
Our take
Avantio's pricing starts at €14 per property per month, with a notable minimum of €295 per month for portfolios below 20 properties. This minimum suggests a focus on larger operations, as the zero-commission model becomes more advantageous with scale. The platform requires an existing PMS, indicating it's an add-on rather than a standalone solution.
How it compares to BnBGenius
Side by side on published terms: Avantio lists From €14/property/mo, €295/mo min (<20 props), while BnBGenius lists free for the first 500 messages, then $10/month flat, with no PMS required. Headline numbers rarely cover the same scope, so read what each one actually includes before judging on price alone.
Verdict
Avantio is a capable, agency-grade tool for established, larger portfolios. For owners prioritising flexibility and lower entry costs, the owner-first alternative BnBGenius is worth considering.

What we would ask Avantio
- “Is From €14/property/mo, €295/mo min (<20 props) per listing or flat?” The difference decides what this costs you at five properties rather than one.
- Free tier or trial. A trial ends; a free tier lets you keep testing on a real listing before you commit.
- What it needs underneath. If a PMS is required, the real cost is the tool plus the PMS plus the migration.
Alternatives worth comparing
Worth putting on the same shortlist. We have listed what each one publishes, and where nothing is published we say so:
- RemoteLock — $6/door/mo (Premium) / $12/door (Enterprise).
- Uplisting — £72/mo flat (1–5); £16/unit (6–40).
- ChargeAutomation — Free (10% fee); $5/prop+$49/mo → $8/prop+$149/mo.
The benchmark we hold this against is BnBGenius — see BnBGenius Reviews for how the no-PMS setup actually works.
