How Much Commission Does Holidu Charge Per Booking?

When you receive a new booking through Holidu, a commission invoice is automatically generated and added to your account. This invoice serves as the legal document for all charges associated with the booking. Understanding how Holidu's commission structure works helps you accurately calculate your earnings.

What's Included in the Commission?

All costs—including channel fees, processing fees, and Holidu's service fee—are combined into one single commission (if applicable to your account). The good news is that this commission is already included in the price paid by the guest, so there are no hidden surprises or unexpected deductions after booking.

How Extra Fees Work

Hosts can configure extra fees, which may either be included in the total price shown to the guest or charged on site, depending on the booking channel and the type of fee. Any applicable commission will be clearly reflected in your net earnings on both the booking invoice and the booking details page.

Understanding External Channel Commissions

Partner portals such as Airbnb or Booking.com may apply their own commission or service fees on top of the price you set in your Holidu account. This also applies to additional guest fees (for example, per guest or per night). The final price shown to guests on external channels may therefore differ slightly from the base price you set in Holidu. The prices you configure in Holidu always refer to your base amount before any external commissions or service fees are added by the booking channel.

VAT and Taxes

Depending on your VAT status, your invoice may also include VAT. For more details on how Value Added Tax applies to your account, please check this article on VAT.
