What exactly is checked in the guest screening process?

Our screening checks cover the following key aspects:

Once a booking request is in process Houfy sends the relevant screening information to Truvi. Truvi will verify the identity and booking history of the guest. This processing period can take anywhere from a couple seconds to a few minutes.

From there Truvi will provide Houfy a status to the booking. Either approved, flagged, or rejected. 

means you will have full 20k protection and no issues are expected from this booking.

bookings occur only around 1.3% of the time. And mean that Truvi would advise against taking this booking and will only guarantee damages of up to $1,000.

Note: Flagged bookings can occur due to improper information formaing from the guests side limiting the verification process.
