Do all guests need an Airbnb account?
I'm renting an Airbnb appartment with my friends this summer. Do we all need an account or is one account for the person who will be paying sufficient? One of the steps in the booking process is entering everyone's name and email address. Now we have all received an email saying this:
[name] booked a place in [place] and added you as a guest. Sign up to view the trip details on Airbnb.
And there's a big fat link which says Accept [name]'s trip invitation
When I follow the link, it takes me to a page which says Sign up to join this trip.
So my question is this: Do I really need an account or are they just trying to make me set up an account even though I don't need (and want) to.

Do you need an account to use Airbnb?
While you can look at the rentals without being logged in, you won't be able to request to book a property without creating an account first. Do you have an airbnb account? If not, get one now!Do I need to list all guests on Airbnb?
