Grounded on qualitative and quantitative analyses, this contribution sustains the following thesis: short-term tourist rental (STR) is one of the main tools of urban rent today and the digital supports that promote it determine some of its peculiar conditions, especially in ur-ban contexts. Tourism industry and platform capitalism will therefore be reinterpreted starting from the role they play in the economy of rent.

Keywords: Urban rent; short-term rental; touristification; platform capitalism.
