Quick answers

What is home swapping?

Home swapping is a way to travel by exchanging your home with another member of the community. Instead of paying for a hotel, you stay in a real, lived-in home and, in return, another member may stay in yours.

Do I have to swap on the same dates?

No. You can arrange a reciprocal swap on the same dates, agree a non-simultaneous swap on different dates, or use an SHH Key for a one-way stay when a direct exchange does not suit both members.

How much does membership cost?

[MEMBERSHIP PRICE TO CONFIRM]. Membership is an annual subscription that gives you access to home listings, exchange requests and secure messaging. Final pricing will be confirmed before launch.

What is an SHH Key?

An SHH Key is an internal platform credit that lets you arrange a one-way stay when a direct exchange is not possible. Keys are always linked to an agreed stay. They are not cash, cannot be bought and cannot be freely transferred.

Will my home address be shown publicly?

No. Your exact address is never shown on public pages. Search results and public previews only show an approximate location, such as the city or region.
