Airbnb requested Plaid access to my entire Chase account and all transactional data to "verify my credit card" a few years ago, and wouldn't budge until I tried Apple Pay, where they apparently weren't able to figure out the underlying issuer and accordingly left me alone.

Needless to say that it was my last stay with Airbnb.

What will you do once all of the accommodation providers start doing this AND they figure out how to see through Apple Pay?
