Late payment

Hey everyone , so I wanted to know,  what happens if I am a guest and I pay the rent 1 day late ? And if I am fined, how much is it ?

Thanks!!

You pay at the time you book, @Omar587 . Then Airbnb holds that payment until the day after you arrive, when it releases it to the host.

So there is just no way you can pay a day late. You won't have a reservation if you don't pay when you book. You cannot stay with a host if you have not paid Airbnb. 

Take a look in the Help centre to learn a bit about split payments and that sort of thing, but the best advice is to get your funds and payment method together before you even try to book a place to stay. 

The good news is that there are no worries about fines, because fines are not necessary!
