How it works

Connect your listings

Connect your Airbnb, Vrbo, or direct booking accounts with Uplisting for effortless security deposit automation. Set a default security deposit amount for all of your listings and booking platforms, or ask for a different amount of money for each property and booking platform. All deposits are tracked and managed through one intuitive platform.

Connect your listings

Automate deposits

Set up automated messages to accompany short-term rental security deposit collection—no more manual follow-ups or reminders. Decide when and how often guests are prompted to pay their deposits, whether that’s at the time of booking or closer to check-in. Choose how payments are processed through secure platforms like Stripe.

Manage deposits effortlessly

Screen guests

Set additional booking conditions, such as ID verification, that guests must meet before receiving check-in instructions. Minimize the risk of property damage, house rules violations, or negative reviews with pre-arrival requirements and a security deposit that keeps guests financially accountable if they cause damages or disrupt future bookings.

Reduce risk instantly

Enjoy peace of mind

Deposits allow you to quickly address issues, replace damaged items, and maintain a five-star guest experience without interruptions or financial strain.

Protect your property with built in security deposits

Uplisting automatically processes a security deposit for guests, no matter which platform (optional) or how they paid for their reservation.

If a guest does not provide a security deposit (either a payment method is not provided, or the payment method doesn't have sufficient funds), they don't receive check-in instructions (you can override if you wish).

Make it easy for guests with a unique welcome page for each booking

Each booking on Uplisting comes with a unique booking welcome page. You can link to this page on automated messages using a message tag (or send directly to your guest manually).

Guests can see a summary of their reservation and provide a security deposit, upload their identification (which is automatically verified), enter their real email address, and sign your rental agreement.
