We are API integrated through a third party platform, AirBnB allows this. It's just a $200 hold on the card during your stay, and will be released after checkout. You can view this help article and verify that API integrated accounts are able to collect renter agreements and security deposits. I am sorry if this doesn't sit well with you, it's normal business practice with API integrated hosts. https://www.airbnb.com/help/article/140. We are 5* and SuperHost status and it's only a short hold on your card, not a charge. :-) We use a hosting platform (OwnerRez) and require it prior to releasing the door codes.
