A welcoming Wi-Fi sign for your rental

Put the Wi-Fi where guests look first. Type your network once, add your property's name, and print a card sized for a real 4×6 or 5×7 frame.

Right for almost every home and business router, including mixed WPA2/WPA3 networks.

Where to put it

Guests look for Wi-Fi within minutes of arriving, usually with bags still in hand. One sign by the entrance and one by the bed covers most stays.

  • Entry table or kitchen counter: a 5×7 in card in a stand, seen as people walk in.
  • Bedside: a 4×6 in card in a small frame, for late arrivals and anyone who missed the first sign.
  • Welcome book: a Letter or A4 page you can slip into a binder with the house rules.
  • Check-in pack: business cards, ten per sheet, to hand over with the keys.

The 4×6 and 5×7 PDFs are the true sizes, not “about” 4×6. Print at 100%, cut on the marks, and the card fits a standard frame with no gap. Ordering from a print shop? Use the print shop file, which adds 0.125 in of bleed and crop marks.

What to write on it

Keep the card to what a tired guest needs: a welcome, the code, and the network details for laptops that can't scan. The design starts with “Welcome to [your property]” and “Make yourself at home”; change both to suit your place. The note line is a good spot for one practical line, such as “Need help? Message us through the app.”

Leave out door codes and lockbox numbers. A sign stays put for months and gets photographed.

Note where the router lives

When the Wi-Fi drops, the first thing you'll ask a guest to do is restart the router. Say where it is in your house manual, or add it to the sign's note: “Router is in the hall closet; unplug for 10 seconds if the Wi-Fi drops.” Airbnb suggests putting Wi-Fi details and router location in your house manual as well.

Join the Wi-Fi, or open a guidebook?

A Wi-Fi QR code joins the network directly: the phone reads the name and password and connects. It doesn't open a web page, and it works with no internet at all. A code that opens your digital guidebook is a different kind of code, a web link. If you use both, label them by what they do (“Join Wi-Fi” and “Open the house guide”) so nobody scans the wrong one.

Turnover checklist

  1. After you change the Wi-Fi password, print new signs straight away. The old code keeps the old password forever.
  2. Scan each printed sign with your own phone before guests arrive, ideally a phone that has never joined the network.
  3. Check the frame glass for glare from a window or lamp; move the frame if the code looks washed out.
  4. Keep a spare set of cards in the welcome book in case one goes missing.
  5. Consider a separate guest network, so the password on the sign isn't the one your own devices and cameras use.

Questions hosts ask

Can I update the sign without reprinting?

Not if it joins Wi-Fi directly. The password is inside the printed code. Services that promise editable Wi-Fi codes send guests to a web page first, which only works once the guest is already online. Reprinting a 4×6 card takes two minutes.

Should I print the password as text?

Usually yes: laptops, e-readers and some smart TVs can't scan. You can turn it off, but the QR code still contains the password either way.

Is this an official Airbnb product?

No. It's an independent free tool that works for any rental, on any platform.
