Where to work
- Open `/host` and switch to **Bookings**.
- If acting on behalf of a host, ensure delegation is active before approving or declining.
Booking workflow
- Filter to `Pending` in the bookings inbox.
- Confirm listing, dates, nights, and total.
- Use **Approve** or **Decline**.
Only paid requests reach the inbox. Checkout is completed by guests with Stripe or Paystack before host-side approval actions.
Availability controls
- In **Availability and pricing**, update booking mode and stay rules.
- Use `/host/shortlets/blocks` to block/unblock dates when calendars change.
Agent quality tips
- Respond quickly to pending requests to keep conversion healthy.
- Add decline reasons when useful for host visibility.
- Keep blocked dates current to reduce avoidable guest friction.
