What are the accepted payment methods for my booking on Booking.com?

When booking accommodation through Booking.com, you have flexibility in how and when you pay for your reservation. The payment methods available to you depend on which payment option you selected during the booking process. Understanding your payment choices helps ensure a smooth booking experience.

Payment Options Overview

Booking.com offers two main payment options, each with different accepted payment methods and payment timing:

Pay Now Option

If you selected "Pay Now" during your booking, full payment is required at the time of booking. Your payment is entirely managed and secured by Booking.com, and we do not have access to your payment details.

Accepted payment methods for Pay Now include:

• Credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)
• Debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)
• PayPal
• Google Pay

Pay On Arrival Option

If you chose "Pay On [date]" during your reservation process, payment is due closer to your check-in date or upon arrival at the property. In this case, we process your payment directly.

Accepted payment methods for Pay On Arrival include:

• Credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)

Payment Security and Your Details

Your payment information is handled securely. When you select the "Pay Now" option, Booking.com manages all payment processing, and your payment details remain with Booking.com only. We never have access to your complete payment information.

Need Help With Your Payment Method?

If you selected "Pay Now" and need information about your payment method or wish to change it, we recommend contacting Booking.com's customer service directly. They can assist you with payment-related inquiries for Pay Now bookings.
