Transparent pricing

DelayPaid charges a single 25% success fee (VAT included) on the compensation received. No upfront costs, no admin fees — if we recover nothing, you pay nothing.

For flights over 3,500 km with a delay of exactly 3–4 hours, the airline may halve the compensation to €300 (art. 7(2) EU261). DelayPaid assesses this automatically in your file.

What's included

  • Assessment of your claim against EU261
  • Formal claim letter to the airline
  • Follow-up and deadline monitoring
  • Negotiation with the airline
  • Court proceedings if necessary (all legal costs covered)
  • Payment transfer within 5 working days of receipt
  • Status updates throughout the process
We do not charge anything on statutory interest or reimbursed travel expenses — those go entirely to you.

You can also claim yourself — for free

You have the right to submit your EU261 claim directly to the airline, at no cost. DelayPaid saves you the time and hassle. That's the trade-off — and we want you to know your options before you decide.
