“For me, the biggest benefit is not having to chase after damage payments. It takes away the bureaucratic hassle, saves time and it calms down hosts who worry about damage to their properties.”

Add Damage Waivers and Deposits into your guest journey
Protect your listings in a way that suits you and keeps your cash in your pockets. Automatically gather damage waivers — small and non-refundable fees or damage deposits — bigger refundable fees. Set the amount of protection, decide who pays, and choose the degree of involvement.
What is a Damage Waiver?
It’s a small non-refundable sum like $35 your guest pays to get protected to up to $500 in damages. You’re covered in case of damage, no chasing, no reimbursement.
What is a Damage deposit?
It’s a refundable sum of money you block to cover accidental guest damages. If no damage occurs, it’s returned to the guest.
