List or Find Your Ideal Place 🏡

Easily list your space or browse verified listings to find the perfect temporary home.

Find the perfect match 🎾

For short-term stays, guests can connect directly with hosts.
For 30+ day listings, we streamline the process by curating and sending hosts a list of guest requests, ensuring the perfect fit. Once a host accepts, we make the connection seamless.

Chat & Arrange details 💬

Once connected, potential matches can discuss logistics, expectations, and final details through our integrated chat and video call.‍

Secure the stay 💳

For short-term stays, hosts and guests handle the details, payments, and agreements directly. For 30+ day stays, once everything is agreed upon, Swappin facilitates the users verifications, subletting agreement, secures payments, and manages the deposit—ensuring a smooth, worry-free process for both parties.

How does Swappin work?

Getting started is easy – just join and download the app for free. For listings of 30+ days, we assist hosts in finding the perfect guests, manage the entire transaction, and handle the subletting agreement. We charge a 10% fee for these listings to the host - the guest doesn’t pay anything.

How does Swappin differ from Airbnb?

Unlike Airbnb, Swappin focuses on primary homes and doesn’t charge a commission for guests. We work to find the perfect match and manually verify users to ensure trust. Swappin is geared towards a younger audience and doesn’t include commercial listings. You’ll find entire homes as well as rooms available for sublet.

Is Swappin for finding roommates or long term subleases?

No, Swappin is designed for short-term and mid-term stays, typically 3 months or less.

Is Swappin available in my area?

We are growing exponentially, with a primary focus on NYC, SF, and Miami. Check the app to see if your area is covered!

What's the difference between short and medium term sublets on Swappin?

Short-term sublets (under 30 days): Guests can directly contact hosts. It's free for everyone, and guests and hosts arrange agreements themselves.

Medium-term sublets (30+ days): The Swappin team facilitates the matching process, handles ID verification, manages the transaction, and provides a subletting agreement. It's free for the guest, and once a match is made, we take a 10% fee from the host's transaction.
