Its website is a platform for members to arrange homestays, offer hospitality, meet other members, and join events. The platform is a gift economy; hosts are not allowed to charge for lodging. Upon creating an account, members set up an online identity, and after leaving comments on their experiences with other members, develop a reputation.[3] BeWelcome is operated by BeVolunteer, a nonprofit organization organized as a voluntary association registered in Rennes, France, which is composed solely of volunteers. The software behind the website, the BW-rox platform, is free and open-source software.[4] HistoryThe website was launched in February 2007.[5][6] After CouchSurfing, another hospitality service, became a for-profit corporation in 2011, some members urged others to join BeWelcome.[7] References1. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/bewelcome.org | title=Alexa Internet: BeWelcome.org | publisher=Alexa Internet}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.bewelcome.org/statistics | title=BeWelcome: Statistics | publisher=BeWelcome}} 3. ^{{cite news | first=Vicky | last=Baker | url=https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2008/apr/19/caracas.adventure?page=all | title=Going local in Caracas, Venezuela | work=The Guardian | date=18 April 2008}} 4. ^{{cite web | url=https://www.bewelcome.org/about/getactive | title=About BeWelcome | publisher=BeWelcome}} 5. ^{{cite news | url=https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2011/aug/26/couchsurfing-investment-budget-travel | title=Budget Travel: Not-for-profit Couchsurfing becomes a company (with a conscience) | first=Vicky | last=Baker | work=The Guardian | date=26 August 2011}} 6. ^{{cite news| url=https://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/12/travel/tips-for-travel-savings-in-2014.html | first=Seth | last=Kugel | title=Tips for Travel Savings in 2014 | work=The New York Times | date=7 January 2014 | subscription=yes}} 7. ^{{cite news| url=https://www.sfgate.com/business/article/A-rough-ride-to-profit-for-CouchSurfing-5920089.php | last=Brown | first=Kristen V. | title=A rough ride to profit for CouchSurfing | work=San Francisco Chronicle | date=26 November 2014}} External links
