Same-day demand from guests you'd pick yourself.
Business travelers whose plans change at short notice need somewhere better than a standard hotel room. We send them to you.
Fill same-day vacancies
Reach travelers booking for tonight or up to 7 days out, right when your gaps appear.
ID-verified business travelers
Every guest passes a government ID and selfie check and is approved by our team before they can book.
You set rates and availability
You decide your nightly rates and which nights and units you open up. We never set your prices.
Non-refundable bookings
Bookings are non-refundable for travelers, so a same-day stay doesn't disappear at the last minute.
Damage deposit hold
A damage deposit hold is placed on the traveler's card for every stay.
Direct agreements
You sign a direct agreement with us, so the terms are clear and the relationship is real.
Apartment-style space. Hotel-quality stays.
We work with professional operators and high-end independent hosts who deliver hotel-quality stays in units that can legally take short stays.
Every stay must include WiFi, a dedicated workspace, self check-in, a kitchen, a washer and air conditioning. Not a fit: 30+ night corporate housing, or units that can't legally take short stays.

Legal stays only, starting with NYC Local Law 18
Every stay on LateKey must be legal under local short-term rental rules. In New York City, Local Law 18 restricts stays of under 30 nights in most private homes unless the host is registered with the city. We work with licensed hotels and hotel-exempt operators (including aparthotels) and with legally registered short-term rentals, and we review each property's legal status before it goes live.
Free for hosts during our launch.
No listing fee and no host commission while we launch, and traveler fees never come out of your payout. See all fees.

What hosts ask us.
What does it cost to list?
Nothing. LateKey is free for hosts during our launch: no listing fee and no host commission. See all fees.
Who sets the rates and availability?
You do. You decide your nightly rates and which nights and units you make available.
Who will be staying in my units?
Only verified business travelers. Every guest passes a government ID and selfie check and is approved manually by our team before they can book.
What happens if a guest cancels?
Bookings on LateKey are non-refundable for travelers.
How are my units protected?
Beyond guest verification, a damage deposit hold is placed on the traveler's card for every stay.
Is this compliant with NYC Local Law 18?
It has to be. Every stay on LateKey must be legal under local short-term rental rules. In New York City, Local Law 18 restricts stays of under 30 nights in most private homes unless the host is registered with the city, so we work with licensed hotels and hotel-exempt operators (including aparthotels) and with legally registered short-term rentals.
We review each property's legal status before it goes live, and every host signs a direct agreement with us.
Do you work with 30+ night corporate housing?
No. LateKey is built for same-day and short-notice stays of a night or a few, so it's a fit for aparthotels, all-suite and extended-stay hotels, serviced apartments and professionally run apartment-hotels, plus independent hosts who deliver hotel-quality stays and can legally take short stays.
How do agreements work?
Every host signs a direct agreement with us that covers how listings, bookings and payouts work.
Which cities are you taking hosts in?
We're onboarding New York City hosts first. Miami, Chicago, Boston, Washington, DC and Austin are coming soon, and you can register interest for any of them now.
