Messaging your Host

Last updated October 30, 2024

Clear communication is key to a great PadSplit experience. Here's how to stay connected with your Host:

The PadSplit Messenger

  • Is available as soon as you book or have a scheduled move-in date
  • Can be accessed via:
    • Web Dashboard: Click the messenger icon in the top right corner
    • PadSplit App: Click the messenger icon in the bottom menu

How the Messenger Works

  • Chats automatically close after 24 hours of inactivity
  • You can always request to reopen a chat with your Host
  • Hosts receive notifications of new messages

When to Use Other Channels Certain issues are better dealt with through dedicated PadSplit channels.

  1. Member concerns: If you’re having issues with another member in your house, you can rate them from your Member dashboard.
  2. Safety issues: If an emergency, call 911 first. Then submit a safety report via your dashboard.
  3. Maintenance problems: Any maintenance issues with the house should be reported as a  maintenance ticket.
  4. Financial questions: Contact PadSplit support directly for questions about billing and payments.
