Is my furniture eligible to be listed on Roomii?

All furniture must meet Roomii’s list of universal requirements. They must also meet specific requirements set for the US. Certain furniture types can’t be listed on our platform. Roomii reserves the right to modify its eligibility requirements at any time for any reason. Get more information about how to list your vehicle. 

The following furniture is not eligible for Roomii.  Ineligible furniture includes Sex furniture.

Universal requirements for listing furniture on Roomii

To list furniture in Roomii, you must:

  • List only eligible furniture that you own or to an owner who’s authorized you to list
  • List only furniture that is located in Chicago, IL.
  • Maintain your furniture and continue to meet our safety standards as your furniture ages.

Furniture listing requirements

Besides meeting the universal requirements listed above, your furniture must:

  • Be no more than 3 years old
  • Be in “New”, “Like New”, or “Very Good” conditions.
    • New – Just like it sounds. Brand-new furniture. The original manufacturer’s warranty, if any, still applies, with warranty details included in the listing comments. Original packaging is present for most New items but certain items may be re-boxed.
    • Pre-owned Like New – The item is in mint condition, free of defects, all functions of the furniture piece work, and the furniture piece shows no signs of wear.

Earnings and payments

How much will I make as a Roomii Owner?

What you’ll earn as a furniture owner depends on several factors. The age of the furniture and the condition of the furniture impacts how much you earn. See furniture listing requirements.

How do I get paid? 

Getting paid via Stripe

All furniture owners will have to set up their Stripe accounts for payouts at registration. Stripe stores your payout account information securely; Roomii doesn’t have access to it. And it’s Stripel, not Roomii, that verifies and establishes your payout account.

When will I get paid? 

For all leases, we initiate payment three business days after the lease ends. Once we issue payment, your bank will take additional three-five business days to verify and process the payment as a direct deposit.

Where can I see my earnings?

To see your earnings, log onto roomii.co Navigate to the “My Account” tab located under the user profile icon. Click on “My Account” and then click on “My Leases”.
