07 · Common questions

Things hosts always ask.

Yes — coverage is underwritten by an authorised and regulated EU insurance provider. Waivy operates the platform and Vela Blu Ltd handles distribution, claims and customer service. Lighter, faster payouts and fully EU-compliant.
Nothing. No monthly fee, no setup fee. The guest pays a small, non-refundable waiver fee at booking — Waivy's share covers the underwriter premium, the rest is your margin. You set the markup.
Submit a claim within 48 h of check-out with photos of the damaged item, a short description and a repair quote or proforma invoice. Reviewed within 48 h, approved claims paid instantly via Stripe. The first €25 per claim is absorbed by the host.
No. Your deposit stays exactly as it is — Waivy simply gives each guest a choice before check-in: keep the deposit, or pay a small waiver instead. You never lose the protection you have today; you just add an option 81% of guests prefer, and earn a margin when they take it. Prefer to manage the deposit through Waivy as well? You can run a managed deposit per property instead — your call, per listing.
Waivy works just as well for you. Right now you absorb every damage and earn nothing from your protection layer. With Waivy, the guest funds coverage up to €2,000 per stay — you go from unprotected to fully covered, and turn it into margin on every booking.
Your account is live in minutes — sign up and set your price right away. For the PMS, our team connects it with you and emails you the moment it's live, so every booking syncs automatically. No developer needed.
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.
