The top 1%, 5% and 10% trophies

[Nathan146]

I am a Volunteer Community Leader and hosts are constantly asking me about the trophies. They are confused why they see so many listings as top 1, 5 or 10% that have only been on the platform for a few months with only a handful of reviews. The takeaway message to hosts is that new hosts are rewarded with these accolades. Can you explain how it works?

If you look on the Airbnb Help website under guest favourites there's an explanation as to how it works @Nathan146

Yes! I've read it at least a dozen times and shared that article with my host club. It actually does not explain how you can be a host for a couple of months with less than a dozen reviews and be in the top 1%, 5% or even 10% of properties worldwide.
