NIC FAQs
Want to learn more about the Nomad-Verified badge and the Nomad Inspectors Club? Then let's dive in!
The badge is awarded by members of our "Nomad Inspectors Club", which is made up of influencers and digital nomad experts.
These Nomad Inspectors check listings on Flatio to determine if they meet the minimum requirements to be considered remote work-friendly, including:
- Fast and reliable Wi-Fi connection
- Proper workspace
- Space for exercise and meditation
The badge helps remote workers who want to rent accommodation through Flatio know which listings have remote work-friendly features, such as:
- Fast and reliable Wi-Fi connection
- Proper workspace
- Space for exercise and meditation
Nomad-Verified listings are displayed first in search results on Flatio.
And since most of our tenants work remotely, the badge helps landlords stand out from other landlords and attract more tenants.
What's more, the Nomad Inspector creates photo and video content about their stay in the property that they review, which is published on the social media accounts of Flatio and the Inspector.
This helps landlords:
- Get more promotion and visibility for their listing
- Gain the trust of more remote workers
- Make their rental business more efficient by reducing the number of questions potential tenants ask about the property's features
1- We require our Nomad Inspectors to create and post at least the following content on social media:
- A 1-minute video about the property and their experience (with a mention of the Nomad Inspectors Club and how Flatio arranged their stay)
- A video walkthrough of the property
- Photos and videos of the property and its surroundings
Note: It's necessary to share the provided content on your social media platforms, tag Flatio, and use #myflatioroutine.
2- We require our Nomad Inspectors to submit their property review using this form.
- Over 10k followers/subscribers on Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube
OR
- A website with over 40k monthly visits
Note: Although we have a minimum requirement, we review all applications individually. For instance, even if you have only 8k followers/subscribers on social media, but demonstrate exceptional content creation skills and high engagement, we'll definitely consider your application.
- Nomad Inspectors enjoy complimentary stays in Flatio listings as part of our partnership.
- They can explore new global destinations or revisit familiar ones without paying rent.
- The partnership increases visibility for Nomad Inspectors, potentially attracting new visitors, users, customers, readers, and business partners.
1- A "stable" Wi-Fi connection with a minimum download speed of 30 Mbps and a minimum upload speed of 5 Mbps.
Important notes:
- This is the "real" Wi-Fi speed, not the one in the landlord's contract with the service provider. Inspectors can check the "real" Wi-Fi speed on speedtest.net.
- A minimum download speed of 30 Mbps and a minimum upload speed of 5 Mbps is usually sufficient for use by 1-2 people. We recommend that landlords set up an even faster Wi-Fi connection to make their property suitable for digital nomad families as well.
- It's advisable to measure the "real" Wi-Fi speed in the areas of the rental unit where digital nomads are supposed to work. If the router is far away from their workspace, for example, the Internet speed and quality can drop significantly.
- Nomad Inspectors are required to include the Wi-Fi speed link in the content they create.
2- A dedicated workspace inside the rental unit (with a quality desk and office chair, enough space to work, good lighting, and a low noise level for concentrated work)
3- A spot for exercise and meditation (within the rental unit OR on the property premises)
Bonus point:
- Easy access to public transport and popular digital nomad spots (co-working spaces, cafes, gyms, beaches, etc.)
- You apply to join our Nomad Inspectors Club using this form.
- We'll put you in touch with a landlord who has requested an inspection of their property to possibly receive the Nomad-Verified badge.
- After the arrangements have been made, you stay at their property and carefully check if it meets all the requirements to be considered Nomad-Verified.
- You inform us about the result by submitting your review using this form.
- If you classify the property as Nomad-Verified, we add the corresponding badge to the listing.
Note: Flatio and the "Nomad Inspector" will post the created content on social media to promote the inspected property even if it’s not considered Nomad-Verified. This is our way of thanking the landlord for hosting the Nomad Inspector.
- Landlords should consider the Nomad Inspector's feedback on their accommodation, particularly the quality of the Wi-Fi connection and the physical space.
- After making the necessary improvements, landlords can re-apply to have their property inspected and possibly receive the badge.
We believe this is a great opportunity for you as a digital nomad or influencer to travel the world through complimentary stays while making a positive contribution to the remote working community.
