Booking Insurance Fee

Our hosts are the foundation of our platform, and we ensure you receive the full price you set after each successful stay—no fees deducted from your end.

We cover all expenses, offering a hassle-free hosting experience. This includes a seamless booking and payment process, where payments are insured and aligned with your cancellation policy.

To ensure a secure experience for both hosts and guests, we have introduced a Booking Insurance Fee for guests. This covers:

• Transaction Costs: This includes all expenses related to credit card transactions, facilitating a smooth payment process between guests and us.
• Wire Transfer Fees: We cover the costs of transferring funds between our bank and the host's bank, ensuring seamless and efficient financial transactions.
• Operational Expenses: A portion of the Booking Insurance Fee is thoughtfully allocated towards our operational costs. This includes not just the hard work and dedication of our volunteer team, who are committed to providing exceptional service and ongoing product development, but also the essential expenses associated with maintaining our platform's servers. This comprehensive approach ensures we can offer a robust, secure, and continuously improving service, all while keeping our operational expenses low.
• Guest Support and Emergency Management: In the unlikely event that a host is unavailable on check-in day, our Guest Support team steps in to manage emergencies and secure alternative accommodations, ensuring no guest is left without a place to stay.
• Insurance for Guests and Hosts: We offer comprehensive insurance to protect against unforeseen cancellations. This guarantees payment or refund according to the cancellation policy without imposing additional fees on the guest.

Our approach ensures that every aspect of your stay is covered, from secure transactions to emergency support, all within a structure designed to support our community's unique needs.
