Abstract
A method is provided for host management in an online marketplace. The method includes obtaining a property listing listed on the online marketplace. The method may also include providing a host management graphical user interface for managing co-hosts. If the property listing is associated with one or more co-hosts, the method includes displaying host detail affordances. In response to detecting a user selecting a host detail affordance corresponding to a co-host, the method includes displaying permissions, payouts, and activity log, for the co-host. If the property listing is not associated with co-hosts, the method includes displaying a co-host add option to add a co-host for the property listing. The method may also include, in response to detecting an input from the user, to select the co-host add option, allowing the user to specify a new co-host and associating the new co-host with the property listing.
