Nokumo vs Smoobu

Smoobu is one of the most-used vacation-rental channel managers in DACH, with published pricing from EUR 15 per month and a bundled website builder. But it is a channel and website layer, not a compliance platform: ePorezna filing, FURS, KassenSichV, and TOMS stay outside it. Nokumo is channel manager, PMS, and EU fiscal compliance in one subscription, live in a week.

Nokumo vs Smoobu: Nokumo is PMS, channel manager, and EU fiscal compliance in one subscription at EUR 11 per unit per month, while Smoobu is a vacation-rental channel manager and website builder with published pricing from EUR 15 per month per property, whose scope stops at distribution and direct-booking websites โ€” EU fiscal filing is not part of it.

Where Nokumo wins
  • All-in-one: PMS + channel manager + EU compliance in one subscription
  • Croatian fiscalisation (ePorezna) โ€” native, no third-party tool
  • Slovenian FURS and German KassenSichV (TSE) โ€” built in
  • TOMS and commissionaire accounting โ€” automated
  • eVisitor guest registration โ€” native API
  • EU ViDA 2028 ready
  • 14-day free trial โ€” live in 1 week
  • EUR 11/unit/month โ€” compliance included
Where Smoobu leads
  • Published pricing from EUR 15/mo for a single property (Smoobu site, captured 2026-08)
  • Strong review footprint โ€” G2 4.5, Trustpilot 4.4 (as of 2026-08)
  • Purpose-built for vacation-rental / short-term-rental workflows
  • Website builder bundled for direct-booking sites
  • Localized in 9 languages, including German and Greek

For operators who want channels and compliance from one vendor: Nokumo wins.

Smoobu earns its reputation: a focused channel manager for vacation rentals and short-term rentals, published pricing, and a localized product in nine languages. Operators who also need Croatian fiscalisation, Slovenian FURS, German KassenSichV, or TOMS automation, however, keep bolting separate tools onto that channel layer. Nokumo ships all of it natively, with per-unit pricing that does not climb as the portfolio grows.

Frequently Asked Questions

โ€œ
Smoobu synced our channels well, but every fiscal question โ€” ePorezna receipts, guest registration, TOMS reporting โ€” sent us to separate tools and separate invoices. Nokumo had the channel manager and all of that compliance in one subscription, at a published price.
