Pay for a monthly stay

If you book a monthly stay (28 nights or more), you’ll be charged a first month payment, and then you’ll pay the rest in monthly installments.

How payments work for a monthly stay

If you want to book a place for 28 nights or more, here’s how payments work:

• First-month payment: You'll be charged this up front, but we’ll hold off on releasing it to the host until 24 hours after check-in
• Monthly installments: For reservations longer than a month, we will charge you 10 days in advance for each payment period after the first payment

Your price is locked in at the beginning of the reservation. You can track your payment details in Trips, or from your confirmation email.

Pay with your bank account to save extra money

If you're based in the US, you can save even more money when you pay with your bank account for eligible reservations of 28 nights or more.

Long-term cancellation policy for monthly stays 

The long-term cancellation policy is automatically applied to all reservations of 28 nights or more, and generally requires a 30-day notice of changes to the reservation.

Pay monthly installments early 

While it’s not required, you always have the option to pay upcoming monthly installments a little early, as long as it’s within 7 days before your payment is due.

For example, if your payment is due on July 11, you’ll be able to pay as early as July 4 at 12am UTC.
