Guests want to check in at 1 a.m.

My guest hasn't booked yet because he says his credit card is going to take 24 hours to get verified.  He is scheduled to check in my home by 1:00a.m., October 20th.  The guest has been verified through identity check and has 5 great reviews.  Do I move forward and let this guest check in my home and take the credit card number and process it myself and then reimburse him if it goes through Airbnb's end?

ALL payment transactions should be through the airbnb platform.  If not, it is not an airbnb booking and you will be breaking the airbnb terms and conditions with the risk of your listing being taken down permanently.

@Jeanette64 I guess you meant September... Anyway, you should charge for such an early check-in.
