Money in this operation is handled like every other logistic: specified in advance, executed on schedule, never revisited. The prices are public. The deposit has four channels and the balance three. The door moment is the first few minutes of the visit. This page is the complete specification, published so the booking thread never has to double as a finance department.
The rate card, verbatim
The hourly base is the unit everything else is built from. Two hours are two units, three hours are three, and every hour past the third adds one more. The eight-hour overnight stands apart as one fixed block of its own. Four-hand work, two therapists on one client, meters at two units per hour, while a couple treated in parallel by two therapists meters at four. The figures behind those units hold at every hour, in every district inside the ring, on every date on the calendar. Schiphol airport hotels are by arrangement, with the journey time agreed before anything is fixed, and nothing is added to these figures for any address. The complete table is printed inside each therapist's profile.
The two moments of settlement
Moment one is the deposit, half the booked fee. It applies to every first booking, every booking made more than 24 hours ahead, every overnight, every two-therapist booking, every session of three hours or longer, every Schiphol or airport-hotel visit and every peak date. The booking is confirmed first, and the exact amount and how to send it follow in writing in that same WhatsApp thread before she sets out: card, or Revolut, Wise or crypto if you prefer; cash cannot serve as a deposit. Moment two is the balance, executed on arrival, before the session starts, because money resolved in minute two is money absent from minutes three through sixty. One booking skips moment one: a same-day hour or two for a client this house has already visited, paid in full at the door. Gift cards, or a payment link arriving from anywhere other than the confirmed thread, are not this operation. No card is kept on file. If you cancel, the house keeps only the part of the deposit your notice leaves earned, and a booking placed in bad faith may be reported to the police; one move of date asked for more than 24 hours out carries the deposit across, as set down in the cancellation policy.
Channel 1 · Cash
The default channel, and wider than visitors expect. Euros are standard. Cash in another major currency, dollars, pounds, francs, is accepted, with the amount in that currency confirmed in writing before she sets out; the euro figure remains the price. Operational notes, numbered. One: the just-landed client with a wallet full of foreign notes can book immediately; no ATM run is a prerequisite. Two: large denominations are workable, but an amount close to exact is always the smoothest version, since change for a big note cannot be assumed. Three: think about cash while you are still near an airport or a daytime street; hotel rooms do not dispense it and midnight canal-side ATMs involve a walk.
Channel 2 · Card
Card settlement happens at the door on arrival, so flag it when booking and the card route is set up before she sets out. Major networks process without drama.
Channel 3 · Crypto
An option for clients who already hold crypto and would rather use it. A crypto payment carries no chargeback, so card stays the plain route for anyone who wants that protection. Protocol: declare crypto in the thread at booking; current accepted assets, the address for the transfer and the conversion rate are all fixed there in advance. Initiate the transfer slightly ahead of the arrival window, chains do not hurry on demand, so confirmation lands by the knock and the session opens as cleanly as a cash one.
Deliberately absent
Features this system does not contain, listed so nobody searches for them. Surge, weekend, holiday or after-midnight pricing: none exist, in any direction. Door-side negotiation: the published number is the executed number, which is precisely why the door moment takes half a minute. Mandatory gratuity: tips are real, optional, and outside the specification.
Pre-arrival checklist
Three items close this page. One: choose the channel when you book, and say so in the thread if it is card or crypto, arrival preparation depends on it. Two: have the balance ready at the start, notes counted, card out, or transfer already moving. Three: forget the subject entirely for the duration of the session, which was the design objective of the entire system above. Booking itself remains four lines on WhatsApp, documented at /booking/.
