How Stay Safe Verification Works
StaySafe Verified helps short-term rental hosts showcase their safety preparedness, giving guests confidence in a carefully managed stay.
Real time safety red alerts
A clear step-by-step from assessment to badge. Most hosts complete verification in under a week.

Register your property
StaySafe Verified begins when a host registers their property and joins the Trusted Stay™ program, starting the verification process and sharing key safety information with guests.

Safety information includes fire safety, emergency exits, first aid availability, security measures, and general comfort amenities documented by the host.
You can view the verified information directly on the property listing page or through the StaySafe Verified platform dashboard.
