Note: Combining currencies and payment methods is not compatible with our system (i.e., you cannot collect EUR or GBP using ACH, USD or GBP using SEPA, or USD or EUR using BACS).
Non-instant payments—such as ACH, SEPA, BACS, PAD, BECS, and wires—will initially be marked as "pending."
Once the participant’s bank processes the payment, it will either be approved or declined.
If the payment is declined, the participant can easily retry the payment from their trip dashboard.
Please keep in mind that weekends and bank holidays are not considered business days, which means the payment might take a bit longer to process completely.
Apple Pay & Google Pay
WeTravel supports Apple Pay and Google Pay for USD, GBP, EUR, MXN, and AUD. These options automatically appear at checkout when your traveler is using a supported device and browser (e.g., Apple Pay on Safari with an Apple device, or Google Pay on Chrome with a saved wallet), enabling fast and secure one-click payments, processed at the same rates as standard card payments.
