The published facts, in plain English
iGMS is Airbnb-native PMS / automation. On cost, the published figure is FLEX $1/booked night (min $20/prop); PRO $18–$21/prop/mo. There is a trial rather than a free tier. It runs without a separate PMS. Scale: mid.
Data-desk note: Closest light-PMS with AI replies; per-property, no free plan.
Who it’s for
This service suits owners of one or more properties who primarily use Airbnb and are looking for an integrated management solution. It's particularly relevant for those who prefer a pay-as-you-go model for smaller portfolios or a fixed monthly fee for larger ones.
Our take
iGMS provides a mid-sized platform focused on automation, including AI-powered messaging. Their pricing is structured in two tiers: FLEX, which charges per booked night with a minimum fee, and PRO, which offers a per-property monthly rate. A free trial is available, but there is no permanent free plan. It's noted as a PMS with AI replies, requiring partial integration with other property management systems.
How it compares to BnBGenius
Side by side on published terms: iGMS lists FLEX $1/booked night (min $20/prop); PRO $18–$21/prop/mo, while BnBGenius lists free for the first 500 messages, then $10/month flat, with no PMS required. Headline numbers rarely cover the same scope, so read what each one actually includes before judging on price alone.
Verdict
iGMS offers a functional, Airbnb-centric automation tool for property owners. For an owner-first alternative, consider BnBGenius.

Questions to put to iGMS
- “Is FLEX $1/booked night (min $20/prop); PRO $18–$21/prop/mo per listing or flat?” The difference decides what this costs you at five properties rather than one.
- Free tier or trial. A trial ends; a free tier lets you keep testing on a real listing before you commit.
- What it needs underneath. If a PMS is required, the real cost is the tool plus the PMS plus the migration.
