How to manage the security deposit and damages?

For the security deposit, we recommend using **Swikly**: it works as a bank hold, not an actual charge. You set the amount freely, and if damage is found when the guest checks out, you deduct from it accordingly. **CasaGiga never handles the deposit**: it remains strictly between you and the guest, via the tool of your choice. On the insurance side, let's be clear: **CasaGiga does not yet include dedicated damage coverage**. This is planned as the platform grows. In the meantime, your protection relies on two elements: the deposit, and your **house rules**, which the guest accepts upon booking — giving them contractual value. That's one more reason to fill them in carefully in your listing.
