Holidu verifies every host account to keep your data secure and prevent fraud. Holidu provides its payment services together with our payment partner, Adyen, who confirms that the bank account on file belongs to you. This protects you from scammers who try to impersonate hosts and change bank account details. Verification also keeps your payouts processing without delay.

Why does Holidu verify host accounts?

Account verification serves three main purposes:

• Protecting your bank details: Only you can confirm the bank account linked to your Holidu account.
• Preventing fraud: Verification stops scammers from taking over host accounts and redirecting your payouts.
• Staying compliant: Payment regulations require us to confirm the identity of the people who receive payments through our platform.

What happens if I do not verify my account?

If your account is not verified, your payouts may be delayed or held until verification is complete. Completing the steps early helps you avoid interruptions to your income.

How do I verify my account?

The verification process depends on how you are registered on Holidu. We have prepared step-by-step instructions and an instructional video for each type of host:

• Individual hosts can follow the instructions for individual hosts.
• Hosts registered as a company can follow the instructions for hosts registered as a company.

How long does the review take?

After you complete the verification steps, Holidu reviews your data within 72 hours. You can check the verification status at any time in the Holidu Account section.
