Create an account if you are new, or sign in if you already registered. Use the email on your San Francisco reservation and verify it. Eligible exact matches link automatically, without an invitation, access request or owner approval. For different emails, ambiguous records or restricted access, contact Stefne for review. Co-Host access remains separate.

Send Traveler Invitations
Choose San Francisco groups, preview each recipient and email, then explicitly confirm. January groups use the shared registration link and automatic verified-email reservation matching. No trip access is granted by an email. Fictional walkthrough contacts and already accepted/approved travelers are excluded. Existing accounts sign in; new accounts confirm their email.
Saved invitation batches
Invitation delivery and registration
Accepted by the email service is not confirmed delivery. Delivery is not registration or acknowledgment. Eligible verified SF reservation emails link automatically. Owner review is only for mismatches, ambiguous records, restricted access or other invitation-based trips. Sending pauses if this page closes or capacity is reserved. Return and Resume when ready; no automatic overnight sending is enabled.
Prepare new invitations or an explicit reminder
For an existing approved queue, review its saved batch above. Do not select Resend merely because a traveler has not requested access.

Trip reminders
Optional: choose update reminders
Essential Official Update notices are on by default here in your Trip Desk. They cover itinerary changes, hotel instructions, departure details and urgent trip information. You may turn these notices off below; you can still read all assigned updates, and required acknowledgments remain separate. Optional group-conversation notices are off until you choose them. No marketing or promotional notices are enabled. Operational email notices are separate from optional in-site conversation notices. Email availability and any saved opt-out are shown below. No SMS, push or marketing notices are enabled.
