At Peerspace, we're committed to making the booking process as simple and transparent as possible for both hosts and guests. To help us ensure a smooth experience for everyone, we ask that hosts complete a few key requirements in their profile and listings before their space can go live for bookings:
Host Requirements
- Host profiles must include their full name, a verified phone number, and include a friendly photo. Last names will never be public on Peerspace. Logos cannot be used as profile photos.
- Profiles and listings cannot include business or venue names. We encourage hosts to describe their space with personal phrases and unique adjectives.
- Listings cannot contain URLs to outside websites, the space's address, or any direct contact information.
Payments
To avoid any delays in activating your listing, please complete the Stripe verification and set up your direct deposit here. All bookings and payments take place on the Peerspace platform, following our payment process. Guests are charged in full when you accept their booking. As a result, hosts cannot require partial deposits to secure the space in their listings.
Host Policies
All hosts are required to closely follow the Peerspace Community Guidelines. If you don't own the space you are listing, make sure you have the right to license it.
Hosts are responsible for being responsive to guest messages and requests as well as keeping communications and bookings on the platform. Learn more here.
Listing Requirements
Our listing categories are Productions, Offsites & Events. Please look below to see what the required amenities are for each one to see if your space qualifies:
Meetings:
Meeting listings are intended for corporate meetings, presentations, or conferences that require seating, tables, and an AV setup in the same room. The space should also be able to accommodate the listed capacity. For example, if your listing says the capacity is 30, please include photos showing tables, chairs, and AV equipment set up for that number.
Production:
Production listings are for film and photography shoots, and should offer a setup that’s easy to use for those purposes. We’re looking for spaces with good lighting, set options, props, and equipment. Be sure to include photos that show the areas guests will have access to when booking the space.
Events:
Event listings should feature photos of any furniture included in the booking, such as chairs, tables, or pop-up stations. The square footage of the space must be able to accommodate your listed occupancy. For example, if your max standing occupancy is 100, the open space should be at least 600 square feet—this ensures a comfortable fit at 6 square feet per person. To calculate room size based on your setup, learn more here. We also require that event spaces can comfortably accommodate at least 10 guests.
Descriptions
Your listing should clearly highlight the square footage, layout, capabilities, and ideal uses of your space that relate to the activity you are listed under, while also detailing any restrictions that would impact a guest's decision to book. Successful hosts are thorough when completing the About the Space, Production FAQ, and Host Rules sections of their listings.
If you have any questions about updating your listings to prepare them for bookings on Peerspace, please visit our FAQ on editing and perfecting listings.
Photos
Photos submitted must match the location provided and show the requirements needed to list for events, meetings, or productions. The best listings have 10+ photos and a floor plan to show off the space in its entirety. You need at least 4 high-quality photos to go live. Make sure you have the rights to your photos, which cannot include watermarks, logos, or explicit references to the business or venue name.
Pricing
Pricing should always be clear and transparent in your listings. The most successful spaces make the booking process smooth and the guest experience positive by offering an all-inclusive hourly rate. If you have special pricing options (like full-day rates, discounts, or multi-day bookings), be sure to include those details in the 'About the Space' section of your listing so potential guests know exactly what to expect. You may also want to consider adding these pricing options to your listing:
- Attendee Pricing (charge based on the number of guests)
- Calendar Pricing (charge based on specific dates or times)
- Add-Ons (charge extra for additional services, equipment, or food and beverage)
