Ping makes it easy for guests to be notified when their favorite Airbnbs become available — and it's the secret tool the best Airbnb hosts use to maximize bookings.

Hey all! My wife and I are the founders of Sponstayneous — a twice-a-week newsletter that brings subscribers the best last-minute deals and upcoming steals on premium Airbnbs. Today, we're excited to announce the launch of the beta of our first product for short-term rental hosts and avid travelers — we call it Ping. Ping makes it easy for guests to be notified when their favorite Airbnbs become available — and it's the secret tool the best Airbnb hosts use to maximize bookings. Ping is a simple widget that lives on a short-term rental host's website (or direct booking site). Ping allows your fans and followers to sign up to be notified if their preferred dates become available. When there's a match between a guest's preferred dates and a stay's availability, both the host and the guest will automatically be pinged! While our beta is focused on building Ping for Hosts, we will soon be rolling out a marketplace on Sponstayneous for travelers. This marketplace will enable them to follow and save their favorite stays directly on our website — and be notified of last-minute deals and cancellations for each stay they follow! Looking forward to everyone's thoughts! Sincerely, Zach, Gabby, and Matt (the dude who actually BUILT Ping!)
