The published facts, in plain English
Lodgix is Vacation-rental PMS. It lists its pricing as From $79.99/mo (1–7 props) + 0.5% OTA fee; 30-day trial. There is a trial rather than a free tier. It sits on top of a property-management system, so you need a PMS as well. Scale: niche.
Data-desk note: Cheap flat at 5–7 units; $79.99 floor and OTA cut hurt solo hosts.
Who it’s for
Lodgix suits owners with 1–7 properties looking for a cloud-based solution. It may also appeal to those with larger portfolios who can absorb the per-transaction OTA fee.
Our take
Lodgix's pricing starts at $79.99 per month for up to seven properties, with an additional 0.5% OTA fee. A 30-day trial is available. While the flat rate is appealing for those with 5–7 units, the base price and OTA cut could be a barrier for single-property owners.
How it compares to BnBGenius
Side by side on published terms: Lodgix lists From $79.99/mo (1–7 props) + 0.5% OTA fee; 30-day trial, 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
Lodgix provides a functional PMS for owners with multiple units, though the fixed monthly cost and OTA fee may not be ideal for all. For an owner-first alternative, consider BnBGenius.

What we would ask Lodgix
- “Is From $79.99/mo (1–7 props) + 0.5% OTA fee; 30-day trial 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
Three others we would weigh against it, with their own published numbers rather than our guesses:
- Wheelhouse — Free tier; Dynamic Sets $12.99/set; pricing 1% or $16.99–$19.99/listing.
- The Host Co — Free (7% fee); $18 / $48 / $250 mo.
- PointCentral — Not published (quote).
For the owner-first comparison we keep coming back to, our first pick is BnBGenius — see Airbnb review response for how the no-PMS setup actually works.
