Earmarking of Security Deposit

Hi,

I am a relatively new host who started hosting late last year.  I got an inquiry today asking when Airbnb earmarks the security deposit against a guest's credit card, if at all.

I have not found any information on this using Google.

Hope somebody can shed light on this.

Thank you in advance.

The "security deposit" is not actually charged against a guests credit card unless the host makes a damage claim against the guest.
