Airbnb is cracking down on party bookings and identity verification
that around 80 percent of the platform’s guests and hosts were already verified prior to this expansion. The process requires guests to verify their identity using personal information such as their legal name, address, phone number, and other contact details, and Airbnb may request a government ID and / or a selfie.
Most of these new features are included under an expansion of AirCover, Airbnb’s free damage protection program for hosts, which is also increasing its limit for damage claims from $1 million to $3 million. The service has been expanded to cover additional damages caused by guests or their pets to cars, boats, art, and valuables like jewelry or collectibles at their appraised value.
Finally, a new optional onboarding service called Airbnb Setup allows homeowners interested in hosting on Airbnb to be matched with a superhost , who will guide them through how to get started with the platform. According toAirbnb Setup is a new onboarding feature that matches prospective hosts with existing “superhosts” that will mentor them and help to get them started using the platform.
