It is very important to consider some basic points before booking on online platforms to ensure that your data and money are protected. Here are some tips that can help you.

• Reputation of the company: Find out about the company you want to book with. If you don't know it, check out the reviews to get an idea of customer satisfaction.
• Safety and reliability: Pay attention to the safety and reliability of the company. Check whether the company has customer money protection.
• Web address, URL: Be careful with companies that have a ".ch" web address. They do not necessarily have to be based in Switzerland. Check the website's legal notice to find the company's physical address and legal domicile.
• General Terms and Conditions (GTC): Make sure that the T&Cs are easy to find on the website. These contain important information about your rights and obligations.
• Electronic bookings: Bear in mind that many internet bookings are exclusively electronic. Subsequent changes or interventions can often be difficult and time-consuming, as there is no physical contact person.
• Beware of bargains: Be skeptical of offers that seem too good to be true. Such bargains can often turn out to be expensive surprises.
