(The Listed Properties do not include any commercial properties such as but not limited to, hotels. This program is designed for Participating Members to list their private primary and secondary homes, not any kind of commercial properties).
- Bookings can only be made by logging onto the Karma Kasa online portal (“The Portal”).
- As a Host, Karma Group offers the Participating Members the opportunity to share their homes and experiences with our large community of Members and earn money doing it. It’s easy to create a Listing and the Listing Member is in control of how they host - set their price and availability and cancellation policies for each. The Listing Member is in control of how and who they host – gets to decide on the price to charge, and when they wish to make their home available.
