Hosts, is your income depleted and are you finding it difficult to pay your bills? DONATIONS

Then, check your dashboard for the Auto opt-in - 5% donations from your future earnings in your 'payments and payouts'. This is already set up with some hosts, but probably arriving in your dashboard pretty soon...

 

I saw a post this morning on another site where the host shared this information.

@Stephanie  Thanks for the link. Personally, it seems a bit crass to encourage hosts to offer free or discounted housing and also donate to non-profits who locate housing for those in need.

And to introduce this "donate" feature at a time when hosts have lost all their income from a pandemic is particularly tone-deaf.

Anyone, host or not, has the ability to donate money to relief organizations at any time they wish and many do. There's no reason whatsoever for Airbnb to add this to our hosting pages.

I'm sure its a development derived from a "Listening Session" Sarah.
