Sponsored Listing includes those verified-listing elements plus featured placement at the top of a category and on an eligible portal, the Opio PRO review AI system, and full-service listing setup. Verified and Sponsored profiles display Google reviews and include a business dashboard. N49 supports both listing submission and claiming, and profiles can show reviews. The Free Listing plan costs nothing, billed forever, but excludes a website link, verification, and support. Verified Listing costs $10 a month. Sponsored Listing costs $100 a month.

Business Advantage analytics cover market comparisons, page traffic, referral clicks, and engagement with listing features. Its minimum listed subscription price is $99 a year for a 12-month term, with actual pricing varying by hotel location, size, and profile.
