**The problem it solves** European property managers want to increase direct-booking capability alongside OTA distribution to reduce commission dependency, but most channel-aggregators don't support both sides equally well. **What Holidu does** Holidu is a European vacation rental platform that operates as a guest-facing OTA and as a B2B distribution and direct-booking solution for property managers. On the supply side, Holidu offers a listing management suite with self-service onboarding, multi-language listings, professional photography support, multiple rate plans, and calendar management. **How it works** For guest bookings, Holidu aggregates and publishes vacation rental inventory across its website and app with instant booking, multi-currency payments, and a two-way review system. The platform also distributes listed properties to partner channels, extending reach beyond its own audience. Trust and safety tools include booking and damage deposit handling and guest verification workflows. The platform handles direct host payouts, damage deposit collection, and flexible cancellation policies. Holidu is headquartered in Munich and operates primarily across European markets, competing with OTA aggregators and channel manager hybrids. **Who it's for** Professional property managers and vacation rental operators in Europe looking to increase direct-booking capability alongside OTA distribution.
