Chekin for Airbnb-first hosts
Hosts whose primary channel is Airbnb, with secondary interest in Vrbo or Booking.com.
Our verdict for Airbnb-first hosts
Okay fit — consider alternatives
Chekin layers on top of your Airbnb-connected PMS to handle ID verification and police filing — useful for EU hosts but redundant for US-only Airbnb hosts.
Why it fits you
- Integrates with Hospitable, Hostaway, Guesty and other Airbnb-friendly PMSs
What might bite you
- Doesn't replace your PMS or channel manager — adds cost on top
- Airbnb already handles guest verification; value is the police-filing layer
Best-for-you alternatives at this size
- Enso Connect Great fit
Official Airbnb Partner with native messaging integration — purpose-built for Airbnb-heavy operators wanting to enhance the guest experience.
From $15/listing • No free trial · Best-in-class guest experience automation with strong upsell ROI
- Besty AI Okay fit — consider alternatives
Besty lists Airbnb as a direct channel and its gap-night and early/late check-in upsells translate cleanly to Airbnb booking flows, but there's no Airbnb partner designation to lean on.
From $12 • Free trial · Strong upsell engine, but AI accuracy and low autonomy rate hold it back
- Duve Okay fit — consider alternatives
Airbnb is a named guest-comms channel, but Duve sits on top of a PMS rather than connecting to Airbnb as a primary distribution layer.
From $120 • No free trial · Award-winning guest app with a real billing-and-support risk to evaluate
