Hands-on Review Notes

Stasher solves a common hospitality pain point: guests arrive before check-in or have a late flight after checkout and need somewhere to store their bags. For hotels, left luggage is a standard service. For self-check-in STRs without a front desk, it is often impossible.

Stasher bridges this gap by connecting travelers with local shops, hotels, and businesses that store bags for a fee. With 10,500+ locations in 1,190+ cities, coverage is broad enough that most urban properties will have a Stashpoint within walking distance.

How It Works for STR Hosts

As an STR host, you have two options with Stasher. First, you can refer guests to nearby Stashpoints by sharing your affiliate link. Guests book and pay through Stasher, you earn commission. Second, you can become a Stashpoint yourself and earn revenue by storing bags for travelers (including other hosts' guests) at your property.

Both options require minimal effort. The affiliate approach takes minutes to set up — just add your referral link to your guest welcome guide or pre-arrival email. Becoming a Stashpoint requires approval but generates passive income from foot traffic.

Guest Experience

Guests book via the Stasher website or app, drop their bags at the selected location, and collect them later. Locations are vetted for security, and each booking is covered by a $1,000 insurance guarantee. The average price is £1.49/day per bag — significantly cheaper than left luggage at train stations or airports.

For guests, the convenience is clear: they can arrive early, drop bags, and explore the city without dragging luggage around. For hosts, it removes the expectation that you must personally handle luggage for early arrivals.

Affiliate Program

Stasher offers a 10% commission on every booking generated through your referral link. You also get a discount code to share with guests. The affiliate dashboard tracks clicks, conversions, and earnings. Payouts are monthly with a minimum threshold of 10 EUR/GBP/USD.

The affiliate link can be added to auto-messages, welcome guides, emails, or your property website. Given that luggage storage is a common guest request, the conversion rate from referral to booking tends to be high.

Network Quality

Stashpoints are typically hotels, shops, and local businesses that have been vetted for security and reliability. Each location is rated by previous users, so you can see which ones have the best reviews. Stasher reports a 100% satisfaction guarantee and 24/7 customer support.

Pricing

Stasher is free for hosts to use as an affiliate. Guests pay from £1.49/day per bag. If you become a Stashpoint, you set your own pricing and Stasher takes a commission per booking.

Who Should Use Stasher

Stasher is useful for any STR host whose guests frequently ask about early check-in or late checkout options. It is especially valuable for city-centre properties where guests are likely to arrive before check-in time. The affiliate program makes it a low-effort way to solve a common guest pain point while earning passive income.

Final Verdict

Stasher is a practical solution to a problem every host encounters: what to do with early-arrival luggage. The affiliate program is straightforward, the network coverage is excellent, and the guest experience is polished. It will not transform your STR business, but it will make your guests happier and reduce early check-in pressure on your cleaners.
