Verified vacation rentals process
- The owner pays us a fee to do a property background check with their credit card.
- If the owners name on the credit card matches the property title, we will display a Verified Vacation Rental Gold Seal on their property listing page.
- Our website automatically generates a hidden random 16 digit verification number for every listing entered in our system.
- The owner pays us a fee to mail that hidden 16 digit verification code to their "Vacation Rental Address".
- They must login to our site and enter this number. If the number matches the hidden one that was generated for that listing, we will display a Verified Vacation Rental Silver Seal on their property listing page.
- This process verifies the rental is real and not a fake listing some scam artist posted. This gives renters more confidence each time they inquire/book a vacation rental using our site.
- We also disable the vacation rental address from being changed for an extra step in security.
- Renters feel safe making a payment to a home owner that we have attempted to verify through our process.
- PayPal allows vacation rental owners to accept payments online without a monthly fee.
