What payment methods can I use?
The deposit is paid by credit or debit card through Stripe. The balance is settled directly with the captain, usually in cash and usually in pesos.
We do not see or store your card number. Checkout is handled by Stripe, which is the same payment processor used by a very large share of businesses worldwide.
Tell your bank you will be spending in Mexico before you travel. A card blocked for suspected fraud on the morning of a trip is a miserable way to start the day.
Visa, Mastercard and American Express are accepted for the deposit, along with the debit cards that run on those networks. Prepaid travel cards usually work too, provided they are enabled for online purchases. We do not take PayPal, bank transfers or cash for the deposit — only the balance, paid to the captain, is ever cash. On the day, a captain may accept a card for the balance if their listing says so, but assume cash unless it does.
