The timing of when your card will be charged for a booking may vary depending on the specific accommodation and booking platform you are using. Typically, when you make a reservation, the booking platform will authorize your credit or debit card for the total amount of the reservation, which means that the funds will be put on hold and not available for use until the payment is processed.


The actual payment may be processed at different times, depending on the terms and conditions of the reservation. Some bookings require payment in advance at the time of the reservation, while others may allow you to pay at the property when you check in or check out.


To find out the payment policy for the specific accommodation you are interested in, you can check the booking platform's terms and conditions or contact their customer service team for assistance. It's always a good idea to review the cancellation policy and payment terms before making a reservation, so you are aware of any fees or charges that may apply if you need to make changes or cancel your booking.
