Step 1: Become a Verified Member (Required)
All members must complete a quick verification process before gaining access to:
- Property listings
- Travel requests
- Messaging and community features
- Hosting opportunities
Important: If you sign up but do not complete verification, you will not be able to access any part of the platform.
This step helps us ensure that every member is real, respectful, and aligned with our community standards.
Step 2: Start Hosting & Earning
Once you’re verified and approved, you can:
- List your space
- Accept bookings
- Connect with guests
- Start earning income
Getting Paid as a Host
We’ve made payouts simple and flexible—no complicated setup required.
How Payouts Work
Instead of requiring bank connections upfront, we send payments manually using the method that works best for you.
Available payout options include:
- ACH (direct bank transfer)
- PayPal
- Cash App
- Other agreed-upon methods
We’ll coordinate your preferred method directly with you once you begin hosting.
Why We Keep It Simple
We’ve removed unnecessary hurdles so you can get started faster.
- No linking bank accounts during signup
- No sensitive financial information required upfront
- Flexible payout options based on your preference
Our goal is to make onboarding easy, secure, and stress-free.
What Information May Be Required
To process payouts and stay compliant with regulations, we may request basic information when needed, such as:
- Your full name
- Preferred payment method
- Payment details (only when sending funds)
If required for legal or tax purposes, we may also request:
- Date of birth
- Last 4 digits of your Social Security Number (U.S. hosts)
We will always explain why any information is being requested.
Is This Safe?
Yes. Your privacy and security are important to us.
- We do not require bank logins
- You choose your payout method
- Sensitive information is only collected when necessary
How Long Do Payouts Take?
Timing depends on your selected method:
- ACH: 1–3 business days
- PayPal / Cash App: Often same day or instant
We’ll confirm timing with you before sending your first payout.
