How and when am I reimbursed for the passengers' share of the costs?

This is very simple. You add your bank account information on Wingly and then you get sent a direct transfer of their share of the costs. Once you confirm the flight has taken place, there is a 48-hour window until our payment provider will transfer you the money via secure bank transfer.

To confirm that the flight has gone ahead, simply log in to your Wingly account and mark the flight as 'happened'.


If you have any questions, you can contact us directly at tower@wingly.io or by phone on +447708405306. We are available from Monday to Friday from 8:30 to 17:30.
