Host's special offer

A host can send you a special offer: a bespoke all-in price for your exact dates (handy for a large group or a single-night stay). You receive it in the conversation (🎁 card) and by email. To book, open the conversation and tap « Book »: you land on the usual payment page. You only pay part of it today (the service fee); the rest follows the listing's terms, shown on the card: charged automatically before your stay, or paid directly to the host when the host collects it. When the host writes a price in the conversation, it is before service fees: the offer you receive includes them — it is the total to pay. If the host gives you several options (say 2 cottages or 4), buttons appear under their message: tap the one you want, the offer is created at that price and you can book in one click. Every offer has a validity set by the host. Once it passes, the offer expires: the card says so, and you can ask for a new one in one tap from the conversation. Until an offer is paid, your dates are not held — they remain bookable by other travellers.
