How It Works

A safe and secure way to rent a room.
Happipad is about matching two compatible people – a host and a renter – into a mutually beneficial living arrangement. The host gains a happy face around the house, a helping hand, and some extra cash. The renter is given affordable, comfortable housing with a like-minded roommate. But how does this process really work? Check out these simple steps…
Create a profile and listing.
Tell us a bit about yourself, your personality, lifestyle, and habits so we can match you with a compatible renter. Set your monthly rent and include room details in your listing, and of course upload some photos of your home.

Hear it from a host:

The whole idea of Happipad is a win both for the guest and the host. The selection methods, the security and safety, and your management of the program. I have learned how important building an operating agreement with my guest is.

Happipad Team is tremendously fast, accurate and helpful responding to inquiries! Website is so easy to use. Terrific concept and created well.
– Linda Weninger, Host
I’ve been a host with Happipad for a couple years now and have nothing but great things to say! I started with Happipad because I wanted to reach out to help students find a place, they can feel comfortable in and call home. Our current student is truly a part of our family.
– Paulette Facca, Host since 2019
Previously I had tried to rent out my room privately and it did not work out. I value the convenience of Happipad and the connecting with roommates that are compatible. Great program.
– Judy, Host
I was a bit hesitant when I first signed up, sharing your home with the unknown was scary . Happipad helped me through it. As it turned out we were both pretty pleased with our roomy and happipad!
