Viewing and managing your bookings

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Your host dashboard shows every booking you have, upcoming and past. From the dashboard you can open a booking, chat with the guest, call them, start a transfer, or cancel.

Where your bookings live

  • Upcoming bookings on your homepage lists each upcoming booking with its date, time, number of adults and children, your payout, and the guest's name and photo.

  • Actions required: if a booking needs your attention (for example an unconfirmed request), an Actions required section appears above the upcoming bookings with a count.

  • Schedule: your full booking list. Tap any booking to open its details.

  • Archived bookings: past and cancelled bookings. You can switch between the schedule and the archive from either page.

What you see when you open a booking

  • Title of the experience, start and end date and time, duration.

  • Number of adults and children, booking reference.

  • What's included and excluded.

  • The guest's profile and any special request they added when booking.

  • The meeting point.

  • Payment details and your payout.

  • A Help section with a link to the help center and a button to contact Withlocals support about the booking.

If the booking came through a partner like Viator, a Partner booking banner with the partner's name appears at the top.

Actions you can take

From the booking details you can:

Good to know

  • If you can't host a booking, transferring to another host is better than cancelling because the guest keeps their trip. Both transferring and cancelling affect your booking completion metrics.

  • If the guest changes or cancels the booking, the update shows up in the booking details and as a notification.
