You can use your profile to help hosts and guests get to know you better as a person. It helps build trust with hosts you might want to stay with, or guests who are interested in staying at your place.
Your profile info will be featured across Airbnb—in search, in reviews, and on listings, if you’re a host. Learn where else your profile information may appear.
The info shared varies whether you’re a host, guest, or both. But the info common to everyone is your first name, the number of years you’ve been on Airbnb, if your account information has been confirmed, like your identity or email, and any reviews you’ve given or received.
Find out more about what info is shown on your profile.
While Airbnb automatically adds some basic information to your profile, any additional information you choose to add is optional. This means that how much info is included—like what languages you speak or your interests—is up to you.
While we encourage all users to have profile photos, we do require them for hosts. Guest profile photos will only be shown after a confirmed booking. Here’s more info about how to add or change your profile photo.
We use your profile information, like other personal information, in a manner consistent with our Privacy Policy.
If you’re submitting a request to book an Icon, you may be required to complete specific fields or portions of your profile, but you can always edit or delete info from your profile later.
