About Payments Compliance Products:

At Airbnb, if there's anything related to money, it comes to the Payments team.

First and foremost, we're looking for people who know and use Airbnb and believe in what we're trying to accomplish. Airbnb is a marketplace that connects guests and hosts but provides the level of trust needed to ensure each transaction. Payments is central to creating that trust, which is why Payments is a core and strategic part of Airbnb.
