How Homie works
Three steps between “I need a place” and “I'm checked in.”
01
Search, or let AI bundle it
Browse verified shortlets and cars across Abuja, or tell our AI concierge your budget and group size, and it matches the right stay + car combo in seconds.
02
Book and pay securely
Live availability calendars mean no double bookings. Checkout runs through Paystack, so your payment is protected until you actually check in.
03
Stay verified, stress-free
Every host and listing is reviewed by our team before it goes live, and every guest is phone-verified at signup. No anonymous strangers on either side.

Booking & checkout
Pick dates, see the price, reserve.
A live calendar shows exactly what is already booked, the full price breaks down before you commit to anything, and payment runs through Paystack. You are never charged until checkout is confirmed.
For hosts
Your dashboard, from day one.
No listings yet, no bookings yet. That's the honest state of Homie right now, but the dashboard your business will actually run on is already built. Here's what you get when you list with us.
Instant payout tracking
See exactly what you’ve earned and what’s pending, paid out straight to your bank via Paystack.
One calendar, always in sync
Block dates, see bookings, and never worry about double-booking a shortlet or car again.
Vetted before you’re visible
Our team reviews every listing before it goes live, so guests book your place with confidence.
Bundle demand for free
List a car alongside your shortlet and our AI concierge will recommend the pair to guests automatically.

Why Homie
Everything the WhatsApp-group way of renting doesn't give you.
Abuja shortlets and car rentals have run on trust, screenshots, and hope for years. Homie replaces that with a platform built the way booking actually should feel.
Phone-verified accounts
Every user verifies their number at signup, so you always know who you're dealing with. No anonymous strangers.
Payments held securely
Checkout runs through Paystack. No cash-in-hand risk, no bank transfer to a stranger and hoping for the best.
Every listing vetted
Our team reviews and approves each shortlet and car before it ever appears in search. Not just anyone can list.
AI concierge
Tell it your trip, budget, and group size, and it matches the best stay + car bundle for you in seconds.
Real-time availability
Live calendars sync the moment a booking is confirmed, so hosts never get double-booked and guests never get burned.
Built for Abuja
Deep coverage across Maitama, Wuse, Garki, Jabi, Gwarimpa and more. Not a global app bolted onto Nigeria.
Power backup, disclosed upfront
Every shortlet lists its power setup, solar and inverter, generator, or grid only, so you know before you book if the AC survives a blackout.
Refer a friend, earn a reward
Share your link, and you earn a reward the moment someone you invite completes their first paid booking.
