Payment methods available on Tjwaal

Tjwaal accepts mada, Visa and Mastercard, as well as Apple Pay on Apple devices, and instalment payments through Tamara where available for the booking. All payments are processed securely and encrypted.

Steps to book in instalments

Search for the hotel or flight, set your dates and the number of travellers, then choose the room or ticket you want. At the payment page, select Tamara as your payment method if it is available for the booking, and complete the steps to confirm.

What to review before confirming

Check the final price including taxes and fees, and confirm the room's cancellation policy: a refundable rate gives you more flexibility, while a non-refundable rate is usually lower but cannot be refunded once confirmed.

Also verify the check-in and check-out dates and the travellers' names exactly as they appear in the passport before completing the booking.

Tips for planning your trip budget

Set your accommodation and flight budget before activities, because those two make up the largest share of the cost. And booking early in peak seasons reduces the total cost more than any payment option can.

Start by searching for your destination on Tjwaal and compare final prices before choosing the payment method that suits you.
