How do you pay your cleaners?

[Kevin Luttrell]

I currently use Turo, which I love for it's convenience and automation. I rarely even need to communicate with my cleaners at all since it syncs with my calendar and automates the payments. I just occasionally check the notes and pictures from the clean. 

The downside is it's expensive - they take 5% of the clean fee I receive plus 5% from the clean fee the cleaner receives. I guess that's not huge, but it feels like a lot especially when I try marking up the cleaning fee to guests to account for the Turo fees. 

For you self-managers, how do you pay your cleaners? Are you manually sending payments to the cleaner at each turn? Anyone use alternative methods to automate the process?
