# Shorekey — Ocean City, Maryland Direct Vacation Rentals ($0 Guest Fee) > Shorekey provides direct-booking vacation rental software for Ocean City, West Ocean City, and Ocean Pines, Maryland, with a $0 Shorekey guest booking fee. Availability depends on published property inventory. ## Why Travelers Book Direct on Shorekey - **$0 Shorekey Guest Booking Fee:** Review the stay price, cleaning fee, configured lodging taxes, and booking terms before requesting a stay. Percentage fee comparisons are illustrative assumptions, not actual competing quotes or guaranteed savings. - **Transparent Free-Cancellation & Deposit Terms:** Clear free-cancellation cutoffs and reserve-now, pay-later deposit splits shown before checkout. - **Local Venue Offers:** Published, approved venues set offer terms and verify redemptions through authorized staff. Demo offers provide no redeemable benefit and are excluded from the list below. - **Chief BlueClaw Flex Arrival Requests:** Early check-in and late check-out requests consider occupancy, calendar freshness, and service work; manager confirmation and turnover readiness are required. - **Co-Traveler Cost Sharing & Arrival Pass:** Share per-person and per-couple cost estimates, with arrival details available during the authorized stay window after payment and agreement requirements are met. ## Why Ocean City Property Owners Use Shorekey - **Owner Fees:** 3.0% Shorekey booking fee (0% on Founding Partner own listings) + ~3.0% Stripe card processing (or 0.8% capped at $5 on ACH bank-transfer balances where owners keep 100% of the processing savings) + $250/year per-listing marketing & VIP pass package. Fee calculator scenarios use assumed percentages; actual rates, fees, and terms vary. - **Shared Inquiry-to-Offer Desk & Partner Attribution:** Any partner share follows the attribution and fee terms recorded on the booking. A booking without recorded partner attribution does not generate a partner share; accrued shares are not proof of a completed payout. - **15-Minute Two-Way iCal Sync:** Combines imported calendar occupancy with Shorekey reservations and exports booked dates. Homes using external calendar feeds require manager confirmation. - **In-Home Repeat-Guest QR Stand:** Converts first-time Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com guests into repeat direct bookers for next summer. ## Agent Connection & Multi-Agent Protocol (Muse, OpenAI Agents, Claude MCP, GrokBots, A2A) - **Shorekey Agent Manifest (JSON):** https://shorekeyocmd.com/agent.json - **Shorekey A2A Agent Card (JSON):** https://shorekeyocmd.com/.well-known/agent-card.json - **Shorekey Direct Streamable HTTP MCP:** https://shorekeyocmd.com/mcp - **Shorekey Direct A2A JSON-RPC:** https://shorekeyocmd.com/a2a - **Shorekey OpenAPI 3.1 Specification:** https://shorekeyocmd.com/openapi.json - **Quantum Atlas Multi-Agent Bootstrap:** https://api.quantumatlas.xyz/agents/connect - **Delegated Partner & Owner Agent Grants (Bearer / OAuth 2.0 / Entra):** https://api.quantumatlas.xyz/agents/connections - **Execution Boundary:** Public reads and stay quotes require no account and create no hold, reservation, or payment.
