Pre-booking information - What will the guest receive

I have been receiving a few booking request by people who have no picture. I request for a picture to be put up before I pre-approve or book.

I am wondering when a host pre-approves a listing what does the guest receive for information. Will they receive your full address before a full booking is confirmed?

@Hailey10 - no.  But requiring a picture will not prevent a pre-approval from moving forward to a booked reservation.  If you want to require verification, you need to set that as a pre-cursor to booking.  Again, verfication will not guarantee a picture. If you are ever uncomfortable hosting someone you can decline or cancel but you need to contact Airbnb before you do these things.  You should also flag their profile for faiing to upload a photo.
