When you receive a booking through Holidu, a commission is automatically calculated and invoiced to your account. Understanding how this commission works helps you manage your earnings effectively.
Holidu Commission Structure
All costs—including channel fees, processing fees, and Holidu's service fee—are combined into a single commission that applies to your booking. The important thing to know is that this commission is already included in the price the guest pays, so there are no hidden surprises or additional charges on top of what guests see.
What's Included in Your Commission
- Holidu platform fee
- Channel processing costs
- Payment processing fees
Extra Fees and Additional Charges
If you've configured extra fees for your property (such as cleaning fees or service charges), these may be included in the total price shown to guests or charged separately at check-in, depending on the booking channel and fee type. Any applicable commission will be clearly reflected in your net earnings on both the booking invoice and booking details.
VAT Considerations
Depending on your VAT status, your invoice may include Value Added Tax. For comprehensive details about VAT and how it affects your earnings, please check this article on VAT.
Commission on Partner Channels
When your bookings come through partner platforms like Airbnb or Booking.com, these channels may apply their own commission or service fees on top of the price you set in your Holidu account. This means the final price guests see on external channels can differ slightly from your base price in Holidu. Your configured prices in Holidu always represent your base amount before any external channel commissions are added.
