How do I pay for a booking?
During booking:
- Select your rental period.
- Review the price breakdown.
- Complete payment in the secure payment environment.
The total consists of:
- Rental price
- Deposit (if applicable)
- Delivery cost (only if you choose delivery)
Huurmarkt collects that payment and pays out the owner, minus the service fee (typically 10%, at least €1) and, if protection is enabled, the protection fee. Those two come off the owner's payout; they are not added on top of your total.
The full price is shown clearly up front.
