How StakeStay Works

From setting up your first property to settling shared expenses, here's a detailed walkthrough of everything StakeStay does for your co-ownership group.

๐Ÿš€

Set Up Your Property

From zero to fully configured in 5 minutes

1

Launch the Setup Wizard

Click "Create Your First House" and our guided wizard walks you through everything step by step. Pick an icon, name your property, and add the address.

2

Add Your Groups

Choose a template (Equal Split, Custom, or Single Group) or build your own ownership structure. Each group gets a name, color, and icon.

3

Set Equity Splits

Assign each group their ownership percentage. Use "Split Equally" for even shares, or enter custom values. StakeStay validates that everything totals 100%.

4

Configure House Rules

Set check-in/out times, max guest limits, and add house rules like quiet hours or cleaning expectations.

5

Invite Co-Owners

Enter email addresses for each group representative. They receive a branded invitation email and can join with one click.

Built for Real Ownership Structures

StakeStay understands that vacation home ownership is rarely one-dimensional. Support for core groups, sub-groups, and individual members means everyone has the right level of access.

Core Groups

Top-level ownership groups with equity shares. Each core group has an admin who approves bookings and manages members.

๐ŸŒฟ

Sub-Groups

Branches under a core group (like adult children). They book independently but need their core group admin's approval first.

๐Ÿ‘ค

Individual Members

Each person has their own login. Role-based access means admins can manage settings while members focus on booking.
