One flat Host Subscription. 0% commission on every booking. Travellers use Triplona free of charge and pay their provider directly.
One Host Subscription. Zero commission.
Triplona is a business marketplace connecting travellers with verified providers across eight categories. Providers pay a flat Host Subscription and keep 100% of what their customers pay them directly.
Three ways to enjoy premium
Choose what suits you — premium content is never locked behind a single door.
Free membership
Browse, book and explore the world at no cost, with standard access.
Watch & unlock
Watch a few short ads to unlock premium features for free — always optional.
Premium, ad-free
Unlimited access, zero ads, priority support and exclusive perks.
Zero transaction fees
Triplona is a business marketplace. We do not touch your customer's money, we do not hold funds and we do not take a cut of your bookings. Providers pay a simple monthly or annual Host Subscription and keep 100% of what their guests pay them directly. Compare that to the ~12% that big platforms charge on every booking.
What you pay Triplona
Host Subscription
Free for 30 days. Then automatic.
What you pay on bookings
0%
No commission. No hidden fees.
Providers settle payments directly with their customers using whatever method they agree on — cash, mobile money, bank transfer, card or online wallets, it's up to them. Triplona is a discovery, verification and communication marketplace — not a payment processor, escrow agent or booking intermediary. Every provider completes identity verification before listing, so customers know exactly who they're dealing with.
Marketplace, not a middleman
Triplona is a marketplace — the same model as a business directory or trade fair. Commission platforms collect the payment and take a cut. We do neither.

Bring your people, earn as they thrive
Share your invite link and earn Triplona credit whenever someone you refer becomes truly active — a paid subscriber or a member who completes a real, protected transaction. Credit is paid into your wallet and offsets your own Host Subscription, so value keeps circulating in the community.

Prices shown in KES, your local currency. Every paid plan starts with a 30-day free trial; after the trial, billing continues automatically to your saved payment method on file and renews on the same date each cycle until you cancel. Cancel any time from your account — you'll keep access to the end of the paid period. From time to time, admins may issue renewal vouchers and seasonal discounts to long-standing providers. Because taxes on subscription payments are declared and remitted immediately, amounts already paid are non-refundable. Taxes are added only where your country requires them. Not in your country yet?
