Q: What is a digital welcome book?

A digital welcome book is a digital, interactive version of the classic paper guide given to guests. It gathers all practical information about your property (check-in, Wi-Fi, house rules, local recommendations…) and is accessible from any smartphone via a link or QR code, with no app download required.

Q: How do I share my digital welcome book with my guests?

In several ways: via a short link sent by SMS, email or Airbnb messaging; by displaying a printed QR code in your property; or by embedding it directly in your welcome message.
