Payments

Payments & security

Your money stays protected the whole way. Here is exactly how payment works when you book with Catchaflight.

Before you pay

Your exact fare is confirmed in writing before anything is charged.
Your card is authorized, not charged, until you approve.
Service fees are disclosed upfront — no hidden costs.
Currency conversions are estimates until your exact total is locked in.

Authorized, not charged

When you submit your card, it is authorized to confirm it is valid, but no payment is taken. We capture payment only after your fare is verified and you approve the total in writing; your ticket is issued after payment is captured.

Secure by design

Card details are handled securely through our payment provider, Stripe, a global leader in payment security. We do not store your full card number.

Major cards accepted

We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. You approve the exact amount in writing before any charge is made.

Clear on currency

Where prices are converted between currencies, any converted figure is an estimate. The exact amount and currency are confirmed before payment is captured.
