Please help me sign up for a corporate account.

We are a lodging sales agency in Korea.

 

Our job is to sell on behalf of companies that have difficulty selling accommodations.

 

We have about 600 partners.

 

So we registered the host and uploaded the partner's accommodation, but the account was blocked for security reasons.

 

Airbnb asked us to take pictures of ourselves and bills for utility bills.

 

But we have a problem with utility bills.

 

This is because the utility bill of the actual accommodation contains the name of the accommodation owner, our partner, not the name of our company, which is the host.

 

I tried about 6 times through the company's employees' accounts, but it was repeatedly blocked.

 

We inquired about the Korea Customer Center for each account, but the reply was to wait for the mail to be updated to the relevant department.

 

We even sent the company's business registration card, the accommodation's business registration card, and the accommodation agency contract with our company in reply, but all that returned was the deletion of the account.

 

I've been trying to create an account and get blocked for two weeks on how to solve this problem, and I found out about the Airbnb Community Center and left a message.

 

We would like to register and host more than 600 pensions in Korea.

 

And the owners of Korean pensions, our partners, will like it and want it.

 

If there's anyone who knows about it, please let me know. Please I beg you.

If not, if there is an Airbnb official, if you let us know the solution or necessary procedure, we will proceed unconditionally.

 

Thank you for reading the long article.

 

P.S. It's not that I can't find this, but if so, if the person in charge of Airbnb sees this article... I would really appreciate it if you could reply to the email below.

@맛돌0  You can't do what you are trying to do on Airbnb. You are a listing service, which is what Airbnb already is. 

 

You can't expect to have a listing service do business by using another listing service. You think you can piggyback your listing agency on another listing platform? Compete with Airbnb on its own website?That's absurd.

 

Airbnb listings are in the name of the co-host or the host.

 

Why on earth would someone use the Airbnb site to simply find a different listing service? That isn't how Airbnb works, nor would guests use it that way.

The partners we have are those who have difficulty using Airbnb.
That's why we register instead and share sales proceeds.
What's the problem?

@맛돌0  That isn't how Airbnb works. When a guest books an Airbnb, they are dealing directly with the host, the co-host, or the property managers that are running the listing for the owners. Not a third party listing service.

 

It doesn't matter whether your clients have a hard time using Airbnb, that's their problem, or yours.

 

What you are trying to do is like Ralph Lauren thinking that he can sell his line of clothing through Louie Vuitton. 

 

Maybe you are  just being unclear about what you  mean by "partners". If you are a property management company that look after the listings yourself, providing the maintenance, cleaning, communications with the guests, etc. of course you can have Airbnb listings.

 

If you are just a listing agency who refers clients to the property managers or home owners who are the hosts, then of course you can't list your services on Airbnb. Airbnb is already the listing service for its users. Airbnb lists accommodations for rent, not other services.
