What are the accepted payment methods for my booking on Booking.com?

When booking through Booking.com via Holidu, you have flexible payment options depending on the property's payment policy. Understanding which payment methods are available helps you complete your reservation smoothly and securely.

Pay Now Option

If you choose the "Pay Now" option during the booking process, full payment is required at the time of reservation. With this payment method, your transaction is entirely managed by Booking.com, and Holidu does not have access to your payment details, ensuring your information remains secure.

The following payment methods are available for "Pay Now" bookings:

• Credit Cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)
• Debit Cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)
• PayPal
• Google Pay

Pay On Arrival Option

If you select the "Pay On (date)" option, payment is due closer to your check-in date or upon arrival at the property. Holidu is responsible for processing your payment with this payment method.

The following payment methods are available for "Pay On Arrival" bookings:

• Credit Cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)
• Debit Cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)

Payment Security and Privacy

Your payment information is handled with the highest level of security. When you choose the "Pay Now" option, Booking.com manages your payment directly, meaning your sensitive financial data is never shared with Holidu. This separation ensures maximum protection of your personal information.

Changing Your Payment Method

If you need to modify your selected payment method or have questions about your chosen option, contact the appropriate support team:

• For "Pay Now" bookings: Contact Booking.com's customer service via chat or phone call. Since Booking.com manages these payments, they can provide specific assistance with your payment method and any modifications you need to make.
• For "Pay On Arrival" bookings: Reach out to the Holidu Customer Service Team. Our specialists can help you with details about your payment method and answer any additional questions you may have.

Payment Confirmation

After completing your booking with either payment method, you will receive a confirmation email with your reservation details. Keep this confirmation for your records. If you selected "Pay Now," your payment receipt will be included from Booking.com. For "Pay On Arrival" reservations, payment instructions will be provided as your check-in date approaches.
