  • Alina, you need to show evidence that you've made some attempt to access easy-to-find resources: that's one of the site rules. – Edwin Ashworth Nov 9 '15 at 11:53

    Here "cut" means a "commission or fee" that you charge when you make reservations for your clients. "Taking a cut on" means "making money from a commission". – user140086 Nov 9 '15 at 11:54
