What are the advantages of a traveler’s account?

 Here's what you'll get when you create a traveler’s account:

  • My Picks. Save listings you're considering inquiring about or booking. We help you track your recently viewed properties and homes that you sent messages to through FlipKey.
  • Track Messages to Owners and Managers. Track all your past inquiries about rentals.
  • Check your recently viewed properties.  Go back and review a list of your recently viewed vacation homes on FlipKey .
  • View Posted Guest Reviews. We compile a list of reviews that you posted on homes that you previously rented.
  • List your Home.  It's easy to start renting your home.

 


How do I add a home to ‘My Picks’?

  • As you come across homes that you’re interested in renting, add them to your ‘My Picks’ so you can easily access them later.  There are 2 ways to save a home in ‘My Picks’

               1.  Add a home directly through the search results by scrolling over a property. An orange button shaped like a house will appear. Simply click on the orange house.

  •  The plus sign in the middle of the house will change to a check mark when clicked, which confirms that the home has been successfully added to your ‘My Picks’ selection.
