What are date stamps on calendars?

The date stamp, which appears on the property summary in the search results, shows travellers the date that the owner last updated their calendar.

We show this date stamp so travellers can see that the owner regularly updates their listing. We implemented this feature to encourage owners to regularly update their calendar, as our research showed that a key traveller dissatisfaction point was when they sent enquiries for dates shown as available on the calendar and got replies from the owner saying the dates were actually booked.

Even if you do not have a booking to add, you can still update your calendar to show potential travellers that your calendar is up to date.

To update your calendar:
1. Login to your account.
2. If you have more than one listing, navigate to the appropriate listing.
3. You can either:
 - Click to refresh calendar
to update your date stamp.
