@Anthony154  If the guest has a confirmed reservation, they have already paid Airbnb.  The money is taken at the time of reservation.  You will receive the money approxiamtely 24 hours after the guest checks in.

Hello @Anthony154,

You've posted your question as a reply to another question. Only people who read the other question will see yours.

If you want your questions to be seen by everyone then use the "Start a conversation" button to post them.

If you have "accepted" a reservation request then check in "Your reservations". Does the reservation show as accepted?

If yes, then Airbnb has received payment from the guest.

When am I charged for a reservation?

When do I get paid?

Steve.

Hello @Anthony154,

Happy hosting in Kenmare. Hope it's going well for you.

They can't have payed before being accepted. Airbnb takess the money from guests only when the host accepts.

Hi @Anthony154,

Welcome to the Community Center! 

@Steve143 and @Cynthia-and-Chris1 seem to have answered your question (thanks both!) - as they said, if the reservation is confirmed, the guest has paid. 

As Steve said, it is best to ask a new question in a new thread so I have moved your question and comments here. It will be easier here for others to find if they have the same question or want to help. I have also given it a title, please let me know if you want to change it!

Happy Hosting!
