We are now on Booking.com and has thus become imperative to accept credit cards on the spot, since their guests pay on arrival. So far it seemed impossible to deal with credit cards between privates here in Italy (our activity being not entrepreneurial) but now Payleven has filled this gap. I did everything I had to do and I should receive their hardware in a few days. I will keep you informed.

Good luck! You are not obliged to accept cc but it looks more professional on b.com.
I had a quick look a payleevan. Not to throw a spanner in the works but it doesn't look the cheapest at 2.75%. Did you consider sumup which offers 1.95%. Sorry last thing you wanted to hear probably as you ordered your terminal.

Yes donnylu, I considered SumUp too, but I didn't choose them because it's a service dedicated solely to business owners, not to private citizens.

Don't know for sure, I'm a newbie with them, but as a matter of fact there was not such an option in the wizard.casasantoestevo wrote:Is it correct that if you do not accept CC when listing on Booking.com then you cannot ask for a deposit?

We're with them and don't accept credit cards but do ask for deposits. Depending on where the booking comes from, and how close to the arrival date we are, I ask for:casasantoestevo wrote:Is it correct that if you do not accept CC when listing on Booking.com then you cannot ask for a deposit?

Have a look at Stripe - they don't yet operate in Slovenia but are already in 18 countries and expanding - they charge 2.4%.
