Verify your phone before publishing a listing
Confirm your account phone, then finish publishing your rental.
On this page
Use a phone you can receive a verification text or automated call on. Never share the code with anyone, including support.
Step 1: Open phone verification
Follow the phone-verification prompt in the rental’s publishing flow. You can also open Account settings and choose Verify beside your phone.
Step 2: Request a code
Check Phone number. Choose an available Text message or Phone call option, then select Send code.
Step 3: Verify the number
Enter the six-digit code in Verification code and choose Verify. Wait for confirmation before leaving the form.
Step 4: Finish publishing
Return to the rental’s Marketing page. Review any remaining requirements and complete the publishing steps. Phone verification alone does not publish the listing.
If verification is unavailable
Wait until a delivery method is available before requesting a code.
If you do not receive the code
Check the number and your phone’s blocked-call or message settings. Try another available delivery method. Wait for the resend countdown instead of repeatedly requesting codes.
If the code does not work
Enter all six digits from the newest code. If it has expired, request a new one when the form allows. Follow any wait message before trying again.
Office phones and internet phone numbers
Use a number that can receive the code directly. An extension or automated switchboard may prevent delivery. Availability can vary by number and delivery method; try another supported number if needed.
Check the result
- The account phone is verified, and the rental shows any remaining publication requirements.
FAQs
Can I finish later?
Yes. Return to the rental when ready. If publishing asks for phone verification, complete that requirement before the listing can go live.
Why must I verify again?
Verification must match your current account phone. A changed or unverified number needs a new check.
Does this change my listing contact?
No. Listing contact controls the public contact separately. Phone verification confirms your account phone.
Does accepting applications publish the rental?
No. Accepting applications and publishing marketing are separate settings.
Why is my verified listing missing from another website?
Check that publishing is complete, then review Track listing. Verification alone does not confirm an outside-site posting or its timing.
