06 · Common questions

Things hosts always ask.

No. Waivy is a damage waiver service — a contractual arrangement between host and guest. It's lighter to run than insurance, pays out faster, and is fully EU-compliant. Operated by Vela Blu Ltd.

Nothing. No monthly fee, no setup fee. The guest pays a small, non-refundable waiver fee at booking — Waivy's share funds protection, the rest is your margin. You set the markup.

Submit a claim within 48 h of check-out with photos — our AI has already compared pre- and post-stay images. Reviewed within 48 h, approved claims paid instantly via Stripe. The first €25 per claim is absorbed by the host.

You're exactly who Waivy is built for. Right now you absorb every damage. With Waivy, the guest funds coverage up to €2,000 per stay — you go from unprotected to fully covered, and earn on every booking.

Under 5 minutes. Sign up, open the magic link, connect your PMS in the setup wizard, set your price. No calls, no waiting, no developer.

Yes. Stripe-powered, EUR-native, operated by Vela Blu Ltd. Guest data is processed securely and retained only as long as required, per our Privacy Policy.
