How do I pay for a booking?#

During booking:

1. Select your rental period.
2. Review the price breakdown.
3. 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 €2) 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.

When is my payment charged?#

Your payment is processed once:

• You confirm an instant booking or
• The owner accepts your request

Without a successful payment, the booking is not final.

How are payments processed?#

Payments are processed through a certified external payment provider.

Important:

• Huurmarkt does not store full card details.
• All transactions go over secure connections.

When does the owner receive the payout?#

Owners receive their payout once:

• The rental period has started or completed (per policy)
• There are no open disputes
• The deposit has been processed according to the deposit policy

Exact timing can depend on:

• Rental duration
• Any disputes
• Payment provider processing

Payouts go to the linked bank account.

What happens with the deposit?#

If a deposit applies:

• It's processed according to the deposit policy.
• It's not paid out directly to the owner.
• It's released after the rental is correctly completed.

See the deposit policy for full details.

What if my payment fails?#

If a payment is unsuccessful:

• The booking remains incomplete.
• The period is not finally reserved.
• You can try paying again.

Without a successful payment, no valid booking is created.

What if I receive a refund?#

When applicable (e.g. cancellation or owner no-show):

• The refund is processed via the same payment method.
• Processing can take five to ten business days.
• You receive a notification when the refund is initiated.

Bank processing times are outside Huurmarkt's control.

What if there's a dispute?#

In a dispute:

• Payout may be temporarily paused.
• The situation is assessed based on communication and evidence.
• A decision is made according to platform policy.

While a dispute is active, payment can be held.

Maximum rental duration and payment structure#

Because Huurmarkt uses external payment providers:

• A maximum hold period may apply on funds.

If applicable, this is communicated up front.

This is to protect both parties.

Important for owners#

• Make sure your bank account is set up correctly.
