At Desire Escorts we offer the possibility to pay the mandatory deposit or even the entire booking amount online, for example via iDEAL or credit card. For the use of these digital payment methods we charge a surcharge of 15%. Here we explain why this surcharge applies and how exactly it is calculated.
1. Why a 15% Surcharge? #
The 15% surcharge is not an additional profit margin for us, but is to cover the transaction and administration costs associated with online payments in this particular industry.
- High Cost Digital Payment: Processing payments for escort services involves higher risks and thus higher costs than standard e-commerce. Payment providers and financial institutions charge significant percentages to cover these risks.
- Complete Transparency: Passing on these costs directly and transparently allows us to keep basiccash payment ratesas low and attractive as possible.

2. How is the Surcharge Calculated? #
The 10% surcharge is calculated on the amount you wish to pay digitally.
Example:
Suppose you book an escort for €160.
- Cash Payment: If you pay everything in cash (after a minimum deposit), you pay €160.
- Full Online Payment: If you want to pay the full amount (€160) online, the calculation is:
- Booking fee: €160
- Surcharge (15%): €32
- Total payable online: €182

3. Options to Avoid the Surcharge. #
The 10% surcharge applies only to the amount paid online. You can minimize or completely avoid the surcharge by:
- Minimum Deposit: Pay only the mandatory deposit online and pay the rest of the amount in cash to the escort.
- Full Cash: If you can pay the appointment in full cash on site (after a respected deposit), no online surcharges apply to the remaining payment.
How does the mandatory deposit work and when do I pay the rest?
Conclusion
The 15% surcharge covers the higher transaction costs of secure, digital payments in our industry. We recommend cash payment for the remainder of the amount if you wish to avoid this surcharge. This policy ensures that we can continue to offer the safest and most discreet payment options.
