House profiles
Users can create detailed property listings that showcase their space. Listings include descriptions, amenities, high-resolution images, and specific house rules to ensure transparency.
Profile validation
To enhance trust, users must complete and verify key profile details before fully engaging with the platform. This includes identity checks and home verification steps, reducing the risk of mismatched swaps or fraudulent accounts.
Like & dislike system
Users can browse listings and indicate interest by "liking" profiles. This helps filter potential swaps efficiently and ensures users only engage with relevant matches. Disliking a profile removes it from their search, streamlining the selection process.
City-based search
A powerful search function lets users explore listings by city, making it easy to find available swaps in preferred destinations. Filters for specific criteria, such as home type, amenities, and availability, allow for a more personalised search experience.
In-app chat
Once users match, they can communicate directly within the app. The chat system supports real-time messaging, media sharing, and pre-set prompts to facilitate discussions about home rules, expectations, and travel plans, ensuring smooth arrangements.
Prompt questions
To help users assess compatibility before committing to a swap, the platform includes structured prompt questions. These encourage users to provide key details about their home, lifestyle, and expectations, making it easier to find like-minded travellers.
Challenge
Building trust & onboarding
CodeLeap faced the challenge of establishing trust between users swapping homes, while also designing an onboarding flow that encouraged complete profiles without adding friction.
User experience
The platform needed a smooth, intuitive experience for creating profiles, discovering homes, and communicating with other users.
Solution
To overcome these challenges, CodeLeap prioritised security, a user-friendly onboarding process, and seamless interactions. Trust was ensured through verification services, onboarding was made intuitive yet thorough, and structured features helped users connect and arrange swaps effortlessly.
Trust & security
CodeLeap integrated Superhog’s verification system and damage protection, helping ensure safe and reliable home exchanges.
Seamless onboarding
Users could explore the platform with incomplete profiles, but key details were required before they could interact.
Effortless interaction
Users could create structured profiles with images and property details, with listings to show interest, and use in-app chat to communicate, for example. Making swaps easy to arrange.
