Trust is the foundation of our community. The new Host Verification badge signifies that a host has completed a thorough identity and background check. This program adds an extra layer of security and peace of mind, so you can book with confidence knowing you're in good hands.
A Badge of Trust
Look for the shield icon on a host's profile. This indicates they've met our highest standards for safety and reliability. We verify government-issued IDs and cross-reference information to ensure our host community is trustworthy.
