When connecting your Airbnb account to Hospitable, you may see this error:
“This Airbnb account is currently connected with another user.”
This means your Airbnb account is already linked to a different Hospitable account. An Airbnb account can only be connected to one Hospitable account at a time.
This article explains why this happens and how to resolve it.
Why this happens:
This usually occurs when your Airbnb account is still connected to another Hospitable account.
Common reasons include:
You previously used a different Hospitable account (for example, during a trial)
A co-host, team member, or property manager connected your Airbnb account
You created a new Hospitable account without disconnecting the old one
Your previous subscription was canceled, but the connection remained active
To connect your Airbnb account, it must first be disconnected from the other account.
Fastest: Disconnect from your old Hospitable account
If you still have access to the previous account:
Log in to your old Hospitable account
Go to Settings ⚙️ > Channel connections
Click Edit next to Airbnb
Select Delete to disconnect
Log in to your current Hospitable account and reconnect Airbnb
Fast: Remove access from Airbnb
If you can’t access the old Hospitable account, you can remove the connection from Airbnb:
Log in to Airbnb
Go to Profile > Account
Select Privacy & sharing
Open Services
Find Hospitable (may appear as “Smartbnb”)
Click Remove access
After removing access, return to Hospitable and try connecting again.
If Hospitable is not listed in Airbnb, the connection may still exist on the backend. If this is the case, you should contact support.
Last resort: Contact support
If the issue is not resolved after the steps above, the connection will need to be removed by Hospitable.
This is common if:
You no longer have access to the old account
The connection persists after removing access in Airbnb
The account was connected through a team or organization
You’re unsure where the connection exists
Contact support and include:
Your Airbnb account ID
The email on your current Hospitable account
The email on your previous Hospitable account (if known)
A short description of the issue

Listings will be imported

Past conversations will appear (may take up to 30 minutes)

FAQs
Will this affect my Airbnb listings or reviews?
No. Disconnecting or reconnecting Hospitable does not change anything on Airbnb.
Will my automations transfer to the new account?
No. Automations and messaging rules are tied to individual Hospitable accounts and must be recreated.
I deleted my old Hospitable account. Why am I still seeing this error?
After deleting an account, on rare occasions, the Airbnb connection remains. If you still see the error, contact support to remove it.
Can I connect one Airbnb account to multiple Hospitable accounts?
No. All listings under one Airbnb account must be managed within a single Hospitable account.
