Booking requirements
Before booking a stay or an Experience, we may ask for a government ID or that you verify your identity. We will need to know some basic information—which we don't share with Hosts or anybody else. We also encourage profile photos, and some Hosts may require them, but profile photo's aren't displayed until after a booking is confirmed.
We need your:
- Full name
- Email address
- Confirmed phone number
- Payment information
Your Host may ask for:
- Brief introductory message
- Agreement to house rules
Your privacy is important to us
Hosts never see your payment information or your email address, even after you book. We'll email you whenever a message is sent to your Inbox.
