Security deposit

Hi, may I know what is the security deposit for? Do guests have to pay for the security deposit on making a booking? Please advice, Thanks

Hello @Hanisah0,

 

Some hosts set a security deposit so that they can make a claim to Airbnb if a guest causes damage.

Airbnb does not charge the guest the deposit when booking. If a host makes a claim and Airbnb agrees that damage is to be paid for then they charge the guest.
