As a Co-Host, how do I receive my payout for multi-channel listings?

[Jack Lindstrom]

I am new to AirBnb co-hosting & currently oversee two properties listed on airbnb. I am going to start listing these on other platforms like Vrbo & booking.com. I am currently paid out a % of each booking as a co-host on airbnb automatically. 

If I were to expand to get bookings on vrbo & other STR listing places, how can I receive my commission for omnichannel bookings?

The only way I see this being possible is if I become a PM, collect all fees, take my cut, then redistribute to the owner. This requires certifications. Does anyone have suggestions on how I can go about this? I currently use hostaway to manage my listings but don't see a way to coordinate payouts. Thanks in advance!

@Andrew Steffens answer is the best way to handle payments from clients. You don't want a fixed rate retainer because depending on the seasonality of a property, you could be under cutting yourself and then other months overcharging the client. Cleaning fees are a pass through from the guest, so you would be receiving the payment from the guest within a short time after check-in and then you can directly pay the cleaner with the cleaning fee you received. There shouldn't be a need to pay a whole month's worth of fees, before you have the cleaning fees in hand.
