Firstly, please forgive me, but It's not clear to me if you mean the actual payment or security deposit?

- The Guest (Xin) will have paid Airbnb to make the booking. Airbnb will release payment to you the Host 24 hours after Guest's arrival. (The payment will clear into your bank account after a few business days. It's nominally 3-5 days, but in practise normally quicker in UK at least. I now receive after 1 working day)

- The Security Deposit is under 'Standard fees and charges' in the Price Settings. 

You don't actually receive the Security Deposit.. It's there in case you need to call on it, i.e. if Guest causes any damages, and you would receive maximum only what you filled in Price Settings.

@Sri11  If it is your first booking, you will have to wait 30 days to be paid. After that, payment for future bookings should come 24 hrs after guest check-in, as Alon explained.

Thanks for informing Sri about the 30 Days for new Hosts. I wasn't aware of it!
