Airbnb began in 2008 when two designers who had space to share hosted three travelers looking for a place to stay. Now, millions of hosts and travelers choose to create a free Airbnb account so they can list their space and book unique accommodations anywhere in the world.

Airbnb helps make sharing easy, enjoyable, and safe. We verify personal profiles and listings, maintain a smart messaging system so hosts and guests can communicate with certainty, and manage a trusted platform to collect and transfer payments.

With 24/7 customer service, whether you’re traveling or hosting, we’re here for you before, during, and after your experience. We've answered the most common questions about Airbnb in our Help Center, and for everything else you can contact us.
