Common questions about this deal

What is included in the price you see here?

The €822.00 total shown above is the asking price of €750.00 the seller set, plus a 8% buyer service fee of €60.00, plus 20% VAT charged on that fee only, which comes to €12.00. The service fee follows SpareHolidays' published rate table: 10% on asking prices up to €500, 8% up to €1,500, 6% up to €3,000, and 5% above that. VAT applies to the platform's commission, not to the travel booking itself, since reselling a booking between two people isn't itself a taxable sale. Nothing else is added: the €822.00 shown now is what your card is charged in full at checkout.

How much of a discount is this asking price?

This seller reports paying €832.92 for this booking and is asking €750.00 here, 10% less. This resale saves €10.92 (1%) against the seller-reported original booking price after buyer fees. Both original and asking figures come from what the seller entered when they listed it, and SpareHolidays doesn't independently verify the original price. Across 49 listings published on SpareHolidays between May and July 2026, sellers set their asking price a median 22% below the original price they report paying, so this listing's asking-price gap is narrower than that marketplace median. A lower price doesn't by itself confirm the booking is genuine or transferable, that's what the review below checks.

What happens to my money between paying and travelling?

The buyer's card is charged in full at checkout. The payment is split immediately by Stripe: the seller's share goes straight into the seller's own Stripe account, and SpareHolidays receives only its fee. SpareHolidays does not hold the seller's money, but it does control the payout date — the seller cannot withdraw their share to their bank until the confirmation window closes. The seller is paid out only after the buyer confirms the transfer, or the confirmation window closes without a dispute. If the transfer never happens, or the purchase is cancelled before that point, the buyer is refunded.

For bookings with travel dates, payout is scheduled 2 calendar days after the buyer's trip ends.

What if the seller never transfers the booking?

If the seller never completes the transfer, or hands over something that doesn't match this listing, you can open a dispute — within two (2) days after your trip ends for bookings with a travel date, or within 7 days of transfer confirmation for bookings with none. Your card was already charged in full at checkout, not merely authorised, so a dispute resolved in your favour, or a cancelled purchase, gets that charge refunded rather than the seller being paid regardless.

An open dispute, payout hold, account ban, or payout re-authentication requirement can delay release.

Can I change the name on this booking?

Yes. The seller has declared this booking's traveller name can be changed, and they're covering the provider's name-change fee themselves, already folded into the €750.00 asking price. You shouldn't be charged anything extra for the name change at transfer.

How was this listing checked before going live?

Before this listing went live, a person on SpareHolidays' team checked the seller's submitted proof against what's shown here: the provider, the dates, the route or location, and, where the booking names a traveller, that name. A seller may use AI to help fill in the listing form, but that's typing assistance only, never a verification step or an approval, and no listing carries an AI-approved badge. The review confirms the proof is internally consistent with the listing, not the booking's current market value, whether the provider will accept the transfer, or how the trip itself turns out. Those depend on the provider's own policy, and on the seller's word, once you buy.
