Using a gift card for a pay part now, part later reservation

The “Pay Part Now, Part Later” (PPNPL) option makes it easy to book a reservation and pay in two smaller installments. While Airbnb gift cards can be used with this option, here are some important things to keep in mind.

You can always choose to use a gift card for your first payment of a PPNPL reservation. Just make sure the balance has been redeemed and that credits have been added to your account.
