Welcome to the Peerspace community! Hosting is a great way to earn income by sharing your unique space for meetings, productions, and events. Here is the step-by-step journey from onboarding to your first payout.
Prepare Your Listing Essentials
Before you start the space submission, ensure you have the following ready:
10+ High-Quality Photos: This is the #1 requirement. We recommend 20+ photos to give guests a full view of what is included in the hourly rate.
Space Details: You’ll need your square footage, guest capacity, and a list of available amenities.
Banking Information: To receive payouts via direct deposit, you must set up your bank account during onboarding.
1. Create an account and submit your listing
Once you’ve created an account, you’ll add your space. There are six steps in this process that are designed to capture relevant information and help guests understand all that your space has to offer.
Tip: to ensure consistent responsiveness, we recommend creating an account with an email that is accessible and often checked by staff managing inquiries and bookings.
Choose your space listing types
You can list your space under the following listing categories: events, meetings, or productions. Learn more about these listing categories. You can choose the listing types based on the type of activities are best suited for your space. You can tailor each listing based on the activities it falls under. All activities a guest searches for will filter to one of those three listing categories.
Gain tools for success
Review key Peerspace policies to ensure you're "in the know" on important hosting community guidelines. As a Peerspace host, you must keep bookings transactions and payments on the platform. Failure to follow Peerspace policies may result in the deactivation or suspension of your listings and account.
Get paid seamlessly
Ensure you verify your account and set your direct deposit (you can't get paid without adding it). In an effort to streamline the process of receiving payments from Peerspace, we've built a payment system that sends payment via direct deposit. This allows hosts to receive payments hassle-free shortly after bookings take place. Peerspace takes a 20% booking service fee from each booking to cover platform costs, marketing, and support.
2. The Review Process
New submissions are typically reviewed within 1 hour during standard business hours. Listings must meet the requirements to go live to qualify for activation on the marketplace. If updates are required, you must complete them and resubmit your space for our team to review.
You can check the status of your listing in your mylistings tab. Learn more about listing statuses.
