Zeevou processes bookings as efficiently as your Airbnb experience, besides enabling you to vet your guests. Zeevou ensures it will never send check-in instructions before completing the steps below.

Zeevou’s check-out management feature shows who has left the property on time and who has not checked out yet.
Uplisting automatically collects the payment using Stripe 3D Secure Links. It automatically pre-authorises and releases the security deposit amount that you have set for your Booking.com and HomeAway guests. Even if it is a channel collect, the guests will receive a link on the OTAs’ chatbox where they give you their payment information, and the amount will be pre-authorised and released based on the timeline you have set for each property.
Uplisting decides whether to hold or collect the security deposit amount based on the length of the guests’ stay.
In the end, the guests will go through the verification process. They are asked to upload a picture of their passports, driving licences, or identity cards. They can easily use their phone cameras to take a photo if needed.
The Security Deposit and Guest Identity Verification are premium add-ons, available for an additional fee.
Uplsting allows you to add your rental agreement, personalise it with dynamic content like guest names, and automatically send it to guests for signing. You can track the status and access the signed contract as a PDF.
You can ask guests to use their contact information for further marketing, and the consent will be GDPR-compliant.
