Company Description

Historically, hotels have been unwilling to offer rooms just for the day, sticking instead to rigid check-in and -out times. We created HotelsByDay to make it easy for customers to find and book single day stays. We designed the platform to make it easy for hoteliers to add this new revenue stream and protocol to their current booking system. Intuitively, it makes sense. Financially, it does too – we've brought in $5M+ in gross booking revenues.

Valuation

Security Description

A SAFE is an agreement between you—the investor—and the company in which the company promises to give you a future equity stake based on the amount you invested. It also involves some kind of a triggering event that must take place in order for you to get your future equity stake. Be careful as you may only get equity if a particular event is triggered.
