Is my payment secure?

Yes. Paying on our site is safe. Every payment is handled by Stripe, one of the world’s most trusted payment providers, and your card details never touch our own servers. Here is exactly what protects you.

How your payment is protected

  • PCI DSS Level 1: Stripe is certified to the highest level of payment security in the industry
  • Encrypted connection: your details are sent over a secure, encrypted connection
  • Your card is never stored with us: card data goes straight to Stripe, and we never see or save your full card number
  • 3D Secure: your bank can add a verification step to confirm it is really you
  • Fraud monitoring: Stripe screens every payment for signs of fraud

What is 3D Secure?

3D Secure is an extra layer of bank verification. When you pay, your bank may ask you to approve the payment in your banking app or with a one-time code sent by SMS. It takes only a moment and protects you against unauthorised use of your card. Seeing this step is normal and means your payment is being checked.

What we can and cannot see

To be clear about your data at checkout:

  • We can see: your name, contact details, your booking, and the amount paid
  • We cannot see: your full card number, the security code (CVC), or your PIN

How to keep your payment safe

  • Always book on our official site, with the correct web address and a padlock shown in your browser
  • We will never ask for your full card number or security code by email, phone, or chat
  • If a message asks you to pay outside our checkout, do not pay and contact us

For the cards and wallets we accept, see payment methods. If anything about a payment looks wrong, contact us right away.
