Payout for 28 day guest

I have a guest with a 28-day reservation. The guest is halfway through his stay and I have received nothing.  On the Airbnb website, it says that reservations of 28 or more days are paid monthly.  I don't understand what that means, practically speaking.  The first of the month has come and gone, and like I said, he is halfway through his stay while I have been paid nothing.  I'm hesitant to ever take another longer reservation if this is how it works.

That's odd, I normally get the payment after day one if the booking is under 30 days. If over 30 days, I get the 30 days first and the following 30 days once that period comes around

Thanks for your reply. What you describe is what I would have expected to happen.

Hey Isaac
Have you tried contacting Airbnb directly?
Or, even better, having the guest contact them?

Hi

I'm also a little confused by this.  I have my first reservation booked for 53 nights (scarey!). 

 

Reservation is from 8th June - 31st July.

 

In my host payout section it's saying I'll get 2 payouts - on Tuesday 6th / Thursday 7th August?

 

These aren't even correct dates as the 6th is a Friday and the 8th is a Sunday?

 

I'm very confused.  These dates are also listed against the discount section.

 

I'd be so grateful if someone could make sense of this for me.  I'm nervous enough having such a long stay as my first booking!

For a new host i would not recommend starting with long term stays (28 nights and longer). It can be prevented by reducing the maximum stay to shorter time periods. But now there is a reservation already in the basket, so let's go for it !

 

If reservation starts on 8th of june, then normally the first installment is paid 9th of june. The second installment is paid 1 month later

 

For new hosts there can be delays, but it seems odd to me your first payment will be in august, after the reservation has already ended.
