If your a host, you will have to deal with competing with other spaces due to some type of algorithm that is going on. Ive used other apps and get multiple bookings a week but on giggster, even though I have the same prices set as the other apps, I get one booking every 1-3 months. I’ve even searched for my house from other phones and computers and sometimes it doesnt even show up. When it works however, it works great. I’d like the tech pple who run this app to make it more fair and less shadow banny and random. I have over ten 5 star reviews and even those don’t help you enter the algorithm, theyve got the same 30-50 listings showing up no matter what you type in and I find that quite a silly business model because you’d make more if you showcased more variety. Renters have no problem looking through multiple listings, they dont need to be force fed the same top listings (only reason they are top listings is because they are the only ones that show up) Come on guys. Still gave you five stars
Giggster is miles ahead of Peerspace, yet it’s the simple things. Minimum hour booking, for starters: Peerspace is loaded with hosts who will only allow bookings with a 6-hour minimum. I’m sure that’s not an issue for larger scale productions, but what about the smaller stuff? So many of just need 2 or 3 hours. Photographers don’t need 6 hours. Shooting a scene for a music video doesn’t need 6 hours. It just seems hosts on Giggster or more realistic, reliable, and artist oriented. Giggster has lots of bookings with 2 hour minimum. And to top it off, response time & accuracy: Giggster hosts are quick responders. Within an hour, most hosts will respond. Peerspace? Days! And that’s if they ever respond at all. Giggster also has a lot less amount of hosts using that laughable $200 “cleaning service” fee to inflate their profit margin. That fee should only be allowed to be imposed for a minimum size event like 20 attendees or something. Giggster is winning. Bye Peerspace!
Giggster is a trustworthy site that offers you the opportunity to host folks who are looking for a place to shoot a project they’re working on, to host an event or even business meetings. It is an opportunity for you to make extra cash, while also experiencing something new and fun. I just wrapped my first “gig” and I have to say, it was 10 out of 10! My experience with the gentleman I worked with and his entire team was just phenomenal. Everyone was super polite, respectful, punctual, hard working and just an ALL AROUND a wonderful crew. I’m super stoked about this and I hope I can continue to encounter and book good people who want to create art in our space.
Giggster Gets You Gigs and you’ll be giggling the whole time! It’s so easy and convenient to communicate with potential clients through IOS! Everything’s at your fingertips and no desktop computer is needed! With all of the perks Giggster has to keep your location safe and secure…from scouting to booking (you can even send custom rates) and viola money in da’ bank! Every shoot through Giggster has been amazing and if you’re not Gigging…download Giggster and start! Giggster is making 2024 awesome! Another great shoot and I am grateful for the pros they have using the app!
This App solves all my audiovisual production needs
When it comes to looking for spaces to produce Videos or take pictures, it is not always easy and sometimes very expensive and you require special permits, with Giggster it is simple and you find everything in one place with the description of the services, the equipment, the general rating from the host etc.. I have personally used it for my last m 10 projects and I am very pleased with the way everything is integrated, keep up the good work.

I love planning parties! I was able to create the best one with Giggster. They were able to help me find the best venues for all the craziest themes in my mind. Being able to create a successful event makes my heart filled with joy. Now, I won't have to stress myself looking for party venues! I need my Giggster app and book them. Aside from its efficient and fast booking, I was also able to save a few dollars from my wallet. Their venues are always unique and affordable. You can never get this kind of space from other booking apps.
We just confirmed our second home rental. The first was music video production. The online process was simple, directions were thorough, and payment was seamless. We had a great relationship with the production team and took personal photos with the artists. It was great looking behind the scenes of a production. Our next gig is gaming interviews. Very different but always fun to see parts our home in a public forum!
I’m providing 4 stars because some features are not easy to find (or do not exist?) in the app. For example, overtime charges are not submitted via the app - you have to look for the email from Giggster then go to the website to complete the form. I did not receive any sort of confirmation notification that I submitted overtime charges. As well, there does not seem to be a way to follow up on overtime charges in the app. The only record of these charges lives in my email. They are not even listed under the Completed Bookings. Not intuitive at all.
The new Giggster app makes it easy for me to respond quickly to booking requests for my property (which improves my rating and makes my listing more attractive to renters). Once a production is booked, the app makes communication easier, too. No need to go to the giggster website or check my emails all the time. I can rest easy knowing I'll get an instant notifcation from the app for every communcation from my renters.
I got into a car accident on the way to a space that I had booked maybe two hours before and was told that I could not receive any type of refund for a space I never even made it to because I have to have cancelled 48 hours before… for a place J had just booked two hours prior. They then offered me 5 dollars off my next booking and told me to take it up with the merchant, who had no idea what they were talking about because not only do they take a cut of what you pay them, they make it impossible to give people their money back. Horrible business, very money hungry. I will not be using this service again.
Been using this app for over a year now. It helps find a spot where you and your guests can celebrate your special day. In addition, it can locate a place for a music/movie space. The reviews left at these places are from actual people who visited the space and their experiences. I’m summary: - Schedules your date/time - Provides pictures of the place - Shows you what’s offered at the space to include Foods/Entertainment/Rules/Etc… - Let’s you link up with the host - Shows you the cost for the space and any Additional items offered - Allows for you to plan ahead This app is generally what you need if your seeking a specific space for your event. Kinda cuts out a party planner and allows you to take full control.
I’m coming from the perspective of a homeowner. I love giggster and the clients that it brings to me. I only rent my house out for film production I don’t rent it for events. It’s a great app that allows me to quickly respond to inquiries. I can have easy back and forth text messaging with the client thru the app. I can see the date and hours requested and the payout. If you’re a homeowner and interested I highly recommend Giggster.
Giggster is the industry leader in matching hosts to guests for use of their homes in media and production. Etc. We have had multiple bookings and they have all been great. Guests have treated our home with respect and followed our rules and limits and in return we have received a nice amount of money and the honor of having our home utilized for projects small and large. Such a cool idea!!
Been using Giggster for years now. I don’t even think about using peerspace. Communication is easy, booking is easy. No annoying notifications when you leave a message on read. Customer support is quick and helpful. I dk why anyone would use a different service.
As a host on the Giggster Platform, I really appreciate the Giggster team’s responsiveness and ability to make things happen. We’ve experimented with some of rhe other platforms, but feel no one does it better than Giggster! The app is great because it makes it easy to stay in touch with our renters and with the team at giggster, as well. 5 stars!
Giggster is definitely one of the better platforms out there for space rentals and bookings. We use a couple different ones right now and I’d have to say that Giggster has been the most seamless & painless app so far. It’s user-friendly, no frills, and their customer service team is on it. Highly recommend.
I’ve really had no issues with this app. it works smoothly, the people i’ve encountered have been lovely. The support team is always on it when it comes to a question or concern. i enjoy how it’s not an automated response and the fact they are actual people.
Working with the team at Giggster has been a great experience. Their great team of staff is one of the best staffs that I have work with. They didn't just keep the website running but they also help me find the perfect venue that fits my budget and needs! I am looking forward to using this app again in the future.
This is our first experience with Giggster and we were able to get our first booking as a host within a few weeks of posting the profile. Communication with the renter worked perfectly with notices going directly to my phone through the app. Very pleased.
Hadn’t used this app before but would recommend 11/10. I had to book a space last minute for a gathering of content creators and I found a space that delivered major WOW! So grateful and am recommending to all my friends who are creators and curators.
Giggster is fantastic! It was so easy and seamless and you don’t need to worry about any issues. Literally booked a restaurant for a film shoot through the app and the cost included insurance and everything. I would absolutely use them over and over again.
I’ve been hosting couple properties on Giggster for a few years and is really paying off. The app is easy to use and most renters are professional production companies. Giggster pay on time and any damages and overtime will be resolved quickly. Much better than Peerspace!!
As a host I’m always happy accepting a booking from Giggster as they are present and helpful if any issues come up. They also process payments super quick and confirm everything with emails. They are definitely my platform of choice for this type of activity.
I had used this for the first time a few days ago the booking process was super easy, better then Peerspace in my opinion. And they don’t have any of those ridiculous fees. Fast booking and all the hosts are superrrrr nice. I will be using this for now on.
I prefer Giggster over all other platforms because they make everything so clear and accessible when it comes to booking. Prices are fair and the categories are really helpful for filtering your options!
As a renter, the permit coordination services that Giggster offers are invaluable. The team takes care of everything and makes sure that all necessary permits are in place before the rental date. It's a level of professionalism that I can't find anywhere else.
People book with what shows up start which is for less numbers of people. And then they think thats the price for all number of attendees. There is no way to start with 30-45 people.
Giggster offers you all the support you need to get your location listed and visible to prospect clients. It gets you covered with a robust contract and peace of mind. Their customer service is superb. Also they are constantly improving their platform.
Love the app! Easy to message guests and edit your own listings. The only thing is, is that I wish it gave you an option to add a booking directly to your external calendar rather than having to input it manually. Other than that, everything works great
Giggster has surpassed other services for filming location variety. The amount of really nice locations is astonishing. The ease of use is great and the app does not lag and functions well. I wish there were more of a rewards program, but that’s a small gripe.
I am very happy using the Giggster app on my phone. It is very easy to navigate. I communicate with prospective renters from wherever I am. I can check my messages immediately and get back to people on a timely manner. Can check my account and any other info right away. Great app.!
This app is impressive. It can help you book, and rent superb venues that you have never seen before. The app also has one of the most accomodating hosts. One of their amazing was ableto help us with our party. Definitely looking forward to using this app again in the future!
If you have a home or space you think would be useful for a production this is a great app to use. Very similar to Airbnb in functionality. Communication can be done over sms which connects with the app. Great feature.
Giggster is a very good community with many reputable renters who are looking for space. We were able to rent our space for three times and the process is seamless. The renters are very friendly and respectful as well. Great work experience.
I’ve been using the site for all my info but just discovered the app and I love it! Much quicker to keep updated with clients checking in about my many locations that I list with Giggster. Thanks for offering this easy app!
This user friendly app takes the guesswork and hassle out of booking locations. I love the messaging service within, too. Most people are quick to respond. Never had a bad experience. Love it!
Easy to use as host or renter first time out support is always Avilable. Speaking as a host now the 1st ranking seems fair the app is fast messaging is not delayed all the time. I do wish reviews could be linked to google though. Overall can’t complain.
Working with Giggster has been one of the best decisions I have made. Their customer support is always ready to answer questions or solve problems that may arise. I enjoy meeting new people & grateful this wonderful space is being utilized & appreciated.
Giggster could not have been a better system for booking locations on my most recent short film. It was easy to communicate directly with the owner of the property and finding places was also incredibly straightforward.
This app allowed us to really get a sense of the property. When. We got there, we were not disappointed. Be mindful that if you have any a big crew, the price will go up significantly and it can add up fast.
I was looking for a small venue and Giggster popped up with venues, I had never really heard of them but I was very impressed with the whole process and with my venue I will definitely use again and recommend that everyone use it.
Using the Giggster app is so much easier than using it in a web browser. This app is very helpful for checking messages, lists, etc. I strongly recommend downloading it if you use Giggster!
As a host, Giggster has been a great way for me to monetize my unique space. The team is always available to assist and the platform is easy to navigate. I've had some amazing productions and events held at my property and I couldn't be happier with the experience.
Listing my space on Giggster has been a great decision. I have a lot of interesting historical features in my property that make it perfect for certain types of productions, and the platform has been a fantastic way for me to showcase those aspects to a wider audience.
I booked a great studio through Giggster and it was super easy to do it on-the-go through their app. I thought I'd have to stop home and sit at my computer but functionality was super easy on the app. Thank you for an easy experience!
This has been an excellent way for my business to build an extra revenue stream. Very easy to set up and the app is very efficient. Its like airbnb for business without the ridiculous extra charges.
There are seemingly tons of new sites that pop up that promise transparency & cool booking opportunities for individuals. However, Giggster takes the cake as the best one on the market! The App is the real reason why. As a space owner — It’s easy to use. You can answer potential customer questions using your own messenger directly on your iPhone (without even going into the app), you can adjust elements if your listing & clearly see an organized calendar of upcoming rentals. Thank you Giggster for being the best! -Ethan F.
As a producer I’ve been using Giggster for years to find locations for photo and film shoots. It’s reliable, easy to use and has so many different options to choose from. I highly suggest!!
Planning for our engagement party had never been easy. With Giggster, we were able to book the perfect venue for our party. The venues are so pretty, some of them are so unique. it's unbelievable that these venues are cheap and not expensive.
A better way to book locations. Giggster is a marketplace platform that connects creatives looking for locations to interested property owners ready to earn extra income. Discover and book thousands of unique venues at all price points, styles and types. We make it simple to search, chat, and pay through the app, hassle-free.
