Today or should I say up until Nov 20th we use vevaios for guest screening, it’s super slick, easy to use and works well on airbnb but does anyone else have any experience with them on Vrbo, other otas or your direct booking site?

Comments on the post

  • “I do my direct bookings through hospitable which lets us vet them. I embed the hospitable widget on a scrollstay site and it looks super slick the way it walks into the house as they scroll. This is my site: https://hyperspacehideaway.com/”
