Pay with your bank account to save money on a monthly stay

If you’re a US-based traveler, you can save money when you pay with your bank account for reservations of 28 nights or more.

You’ll find the option to pay with your bank account when you’re ready to confirm and pay for your reservation. For monthly stays, the amount you’ll save will be highlighted.

Eligibility to pay with a bank account for a monthly stay

You’ll be able to pay with your bank account when:

• Your country of residence is the United States
• Your default currency is USD
• You’re booking a listing with a flexible or moderate cancellation policy or you’ll be staying 28 nights or more
• For stays of less than 28 nights, the start date of your reservation is at least 9 days away (for flexible cancellation policies) or 13 days away (for moderate cancellation policies)

Switching your payment method when you pay for a monthly stay

If you choose a different payment method during booking and switch your payment method to your bank account later, the savings won’t be applied to your original reservation.

Additionally, if you alter a short-term stay to a monthly stay, and the first payment was made with a non-pay-by-bank method, you won’t be eligible to pay with your bank account either.

Connect your bank account to pay for a monthly stay

The first time you select to pay with your bank account, you’ll be prompted to connect your bank account and a new window will pop up with a simple sign-in flow with our payment partner Stripe:

1. Click or tap Agree to start the process
2. Select your bank and follow the secure sign in flow
3. Select which bank account you want to use and follow the prompts to connect your account
4. Once the connection is ready, click or tap Done to continue checking out

After connecting your account, you’ll find your bank account in your payment wallet. Choose your bank account and click or tap Confirm and pay. For stays of 28 nights and more, your savings will be automatically applied.

When you’ll pay for a monthly stay 

For reservations of 28 nights or more, you’ll be charged for the first month upon confirmation. After that, you'll be charged the remainder in monthly installments. You can review the dates of your monthly payments on the Confirm and pay page.
