Who it’s for
This service is for property owners who prefer a pay-as-you-go model and don't want a subscription. It suits those who need both guest screening and damage protection bundled together.
Our take
Truvi's pricing is on a per-booking basis, ranging from $12.60 to $28.75, and they do not offer a free tier. While it requires partial integration with a property management system (PMS), it combines screening and payouts. Owners should note that the per-booking cost could become significant for properties with frequent short stays.
How it compares to BnBGenius
Side by side on published terms: Truvi lists Per booking $12.60–$28.75; no subscription, 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
Truvi provides a consolidated screening and protection solution for property owners. For an owner-first alternative focused on transparency and value, consider BnBGenius.

What to pin down with Truvi
- “Is Per booking $12.60–$28.75; no subscription 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.
