Test Booking on Houfy

I would like to do a test booking on Houfy to see what it looks like for a guest and for the owner.

Última atualização 28 de agosto de 2026

  1. Set a $5 price for 1 night in the future at Edit listing > Calendar, and set a 1-night minimum stay. Pick a MIDWEEK night - if the night you choose has a weekend price set on it, the guest is quoted the weekend price and not your $5 test price.

  2. Remove Fees/Taxes at Edit listing > Pricing

  3. Check your payment policy at Edit listing > Payment information. Under Payment Policy choose the Full Payment card - 100% payment at time of booking.

  4. Sign out of Houfy as Owner. (Or use another browser)

Create a "Guest" account with another e-mail.

  • Enter the message "This is a test request. Please ignore it." - type it exactly as written, including the full stop. It is matched literally, and any typo means the request counts towards your response rate.

  • Book & Pay the night as a guest - Check the price is indeed 5$.

  • Sign out as Guest.

Check your e-mail as Owner. Log in as owner and Accept the booking request.

Check e-mails sent to Guest and Owner.

Once all is fine: Cancel & Refund Booking

  1. Set price back to what is was before at Calendar. (Min Nights as well)

  2. Set fees and taxes back

  3. Adjust Payment settings again.
