Cash payment option

It is not possible to pay the pilot in cash directly on-site.

To benefit from Wingly's free additional insurance and comply with legal regulations, payments must be made through the Wingly platform. Our secure online payment system ensures fair cost-sharing between the pilot and passengers.

Payments can only be made via credit card or PayPal.
