Swiftstay vs Adopted Adults

Swiftstay is a private members’ club for home exchange where you can spontaneously escape to drive time destinations and stay at beautiful homes for just the cleaning fee. To travel, you use credits. Every member starts with 3 credits (1 credit = 1 night). To gain more credits, members can list their own home when they are away. For listing, members receive .2 credits per night listed and for bookings members receive 1 credit per night their home is booked. Homes, big and small, apartments, townhouses, and more whether rented or owned are accepted and allowed on Swiftstay. It’s like a friend staying over while you’re away. Our home exchange model is concierge - we take care of professional cleaning before and after and check in and check out. We give each member a members’ kit that cleaners user before they setting up the members’ home for hosting. The members’ kit includes fresh bedsheets, towels, and hotel-like toiletries. Escape for the weekend, every weekend, for free.

Everyone has that one friend who lives somewhere interesting and happens to be a great host. You come stay, they cook for you, show you around, take you on the little adventures you'd never find on your own. Now imagine hundreds of those friends, in 566 cities and 74 countries. That's Adopted Adults. WHAT IT COSTS Nothing. The stay is free. No nightly rate, no cleaning fee, no resort fee for a resort you never saw. What it actually costs is a little awkwardness. Some small talk. A life story or two over breakfast. People told us that was too much to ask. We disagreed. HOW IT WORKS Everyone here hosts. That's the whole trick. You open your place up, and the door opens everywhere else too. 1. Build a real profile. Real photos, real answers, and you can verify your ID. 2. Browse adoptions. Not spare rooms, actual trips. A weekend of hiking. A food tour of a city you've never heard of. A cabin with a dog and a wood stove. 3. Start a convo. Talk first, plan it together, agree on the dates. 4. Go stay with someone who actually wants you there. WHY NOT JUST BOOK SOMETHING Airbnb has hosts. VRBO has hosts. But somewhere in there, "host" came to mean a lockbox and a welcome cookie. A good host cooks for you, shows you around, and somewhere along the way becomes your friend. There wasn't a word for that anymore, so we picked one. Here, you don't get hosted. You get adopted. SAFETY Adults only. Profiles are real people with real photos, members can verify their identity with a government ID, and every profile carries its history. One tap to report or block. Nobody here is anonymous. FOUNDING MEMBERS Our first 1,000 adopters keep it free for life.
