Will host to travel!

[Chloe7]

Hello lovely people all over the globe!
I've been unsuccessful in finding an answer to my question. Please assist if you are in the know...:
I'd like to begin hosting travellers in my home but would prefer not to draw the money earned out of Airbnb but rather keep it in an "account" with Airbnb in order to use the "credit" for my own travelling accommodation later in the year.
Is this possible? Or must one "draw" the monies from the great Airbnb Piggy Bank?
Thank you from South Africa, Chloe

@Chloe7 You have to take your payouts from the Airbnb piggy bank!  Airbnb has to keep track of your payouts for earnings reporting purposes so using the payments for travel credit wouldn't work.  You can set up your own piggy bank account to receive payouts!

Lovely to meet you @Chloe7 and welcome to the Community Center.

It is great to hear you are planning to be a host to fund your travels. Where is on you wish list of places to visit? 🙂
