Trust and safety

How we keep stays and experiences safe for guests and hosts.

Booking a stranger's home, or welcoming one, takes trust. Here is how we earn it.

Checked stays

Our team reviews every stay before it goes online.

Verified reviews

Only guests who stayed or took part can review a host, and hosts review their guests.

Payments and messages on Yourbnb

Pay and talk through Yourbnb, never by bank transfer outside it: that is how we can help if something goes wrong.

If something goes wrong

Write to us from the contact page. A real person answers, usually within the day.
