What online booking is and how to book a place
Online booking lets you select dates on a daily rental ad and send the host a booking request without calling first. It is not an instant booking: the host reviews each request and approves or declines it.
The host has 24 hours to respond. Dates are not held until a request is approved, so other guests can request the same dates. When the host approves one request, other pending requests with overlapping dates are declined automatically.
List.am does not collect or transfer booking payments, charge a card, or hold a deposit. Agree on the amount, payment method, and timing directly with the host. “Confirmed” means that the host accepted your stay and is holding the dates for you; it does not mean that a payment was made through List.am.
Online booking is available only on ads where the host has enabled it. Use the regular contact options on other ads.
Open the ad. If the host has enabled online booking, you will see the booking section on the ad.
1.
Select your check-in and check-out dates. Unavailable dates cannot be selected: they may be in the past, blocked by the host, or already booked. If the host has set a minimum stay, you cannot select a shorter period.
2.
Enter the number of adults and children. The total cannot exceed the host’s maximum guest limit.
3.
Select “Request to book.” Review the booking details, optionally add a note to the host, and confirm your phone number.
4.
Accept the terms and select “Send request.”
After it is sent, the request appears in “My stays” with a “Pending” status. The host has up to 24 hours to respond. Sending a request is free and no payment is made on List.am.
