Seeing Charges From Trivago?

Trivago doesn't charge you directly — it's a metasearch engine that compares hotel prices. When you click "Book" on Trivago, you're redirected to a booking partner. The actual charge comes from:

• Booking.com — may appear as "BOOKING.COM" or "BOOKINGCOM"
• Expedia — may appear as "EXPEDIA" or "TRAVELSCAPE"
• Hotels.com — may appear as "HOTELS.COM"
• The hotel directly — may pre-authorize your card

If you see an unexpected charge, contact the booking partner directly — not Trivago. Check your email for booking confirmations.

How to Stop Trivago Emails

2. Scroll to the bottom and click Unsubscribe
3. Or log in and go to Account → Notification Preferences → turn off all emails

Better Alternatives for Hotel Search

• Google Hotels — built into Google Search, shows all major OTAs + direct booking prices
• Kayak — metasearch with price alerts and flexible date calendar
• Google Flights + Hotels — best for combined trip planning
• Book directly with the hotel — often same price or cheaper, plus loyalty points and better cancellation policies
