Our commitment, in plain words
approximately US$1.32 from every completed booking.
VervTrip funds the contribution towards UK food banks. It is per booking, not per night or traveller, and it is not added to your checkout bill.
The amount shown is an approximate local-currency equivalent of our fixed £1.00 commitment.
A commitment is not the same as a published record of donations. We do not yet publish verified transfer totals or beneficiary reports here, and we do not turn a booking into a claimed number of meals. For questions about where contributions go, contact our team.
Why food?
Dinner should not be the difficult part of someone’s day.
For travellers, food can be one of the pleasures of a trip: finding a neighbourhood café, sharing a meal, trying something unfamiliar. At home, dependable access to food is much more basic. It is something everyone should be able to count on.
Stay & Give connects the trips people already plan with a contribution from our business. We know it is one small part of a much bigger issue. That is why these pages also explain the need and point to ways to help without booking anything.

Your questions, answered
How much does VervTrip contribute?
VervTrip contributes £1.00 from every completed booking to support UK food banks. This is per booking, not per traveller or per night.
Does it cost me anything extra?
No. VervTrip funds the contribution. Stay & Give is not an extra checkout fee and you do not need to add a donation.
Why might I see a different currency?
Our contribution is fixed at £1.00. Where available, we show an approximate equivalent in the currency associated with your IP location. Exchange rates change. If location or conversion data is unavailable, we use your selected currency or clearly show GBP.
What happens if a booking is cancelled?
The contribution applies to completed bookings. Cancelled bookings and unsuccessful payments do not qualify.
Is Stay & Give a carbon offset?
No. Stay & Give supports UK food banks. GreenCore carbon estimates and any separately offered cashback are different programmes.
For programme enquiries, contact VervTrip. Looking for hotel carbon estimates? Explore GreenCore.
