自在客（Zizaike) and other Chinese "Airbnbs"

1

Has anyone listed on Zizaike (the Chinese Airbnb clone)? Worth it?

Zizaike doesn’t sound like a Chinese name, @hypertokyo san. I’d’ve guessed it was Japanese. Is it big in Japan?

It’s not from Japan. Zizaike is one of the biggest homesharing websites geared to internatonal travelers from China, together with Tujia, Xiaozhu, and Zhubaijia (Airbnb is a latecomer to the Chinese market and still has low market share). More than half of travelers to Japan come from the greater China market (PRC, HK, Taiwan). I believe listing on these sites could be instrumental to boost our bookings.

Just keeping watch on this topic: TUJIA is now officially a unicorn with $1.5B valuation.

自在客（Zizaike) is a Chinese name. But it’s only limited in Taiwan and Japan area listings. Im looking into Tujia.
