Get your listing ready to go live

This is for hosts who have set up a property and want to know exactly what is left before it can take bookings. There is no publish button in Haven, so "going live" means turning every requirement green. This guide shows you how to read your readiness, find what is still blocking you, and clear it.

Reading your readiness

Each property shows a readiness wheel, a percentage that tells you how close it is to bookable. It appears in three states:

Amber means the property needs setup or has open blockers.
Blue means the property is bookable but could be optimized further.
Green means the property is complete and ready.

Open a property and you will see a Listing readiness breakdown, an activity-ring style panel that lays out exactly what is done and what is still missing.

Find what is blocking you

The exact list of blockers shows up in two places: as a "Not bookable" indicator on the property, and inside Edit Listing → Visibility. The Visibility section is the clearest place to work from, because each unmet requirement is a row you can act on.

The property-level requirements are:

Photos
Title
Description
Location
Pricing

Each row links you to the place to fix it, so you can clear them one at a time and watch the wheel climb.

The two account-level gates

Filling in the property is not the whole picture. Two requirements live at the account level, not the property level, so they apply to everything you list:

An active paid plan. On the Free plan, your site stays private. Choose a plan from your billing settings to clear this. See subscription & billing.
A connected and verified Stripe account. Without it, no property can take money. See Stripe setup.

Both of these appear right in the Visibility section alongside the property checklist, so you can see all your requirements in one view.

Putting it together

A property goes live the moment all of these are green at once: the property requirements, an active paid plan, verified Stripe, and the property not being archived. There is nothing else to press. When the last item turns green, your site is public.

The visibility & publishing guide goes deeper on how all of this fits together.

You're done when…

Your readiness wheel is green, the Visibility section shows no remaining blockers, you are on a paid plan, and Stripe is verified. At that point your property is live, with no further action needed.
