    Winning and Payment

    Payment must be made through one of FlySafair’s approved payment gateways (Ozow, Mobicred and card payments).
    Failure to make payment within the specified time will result in the bidder being placed on the FlySafair no fly list. A bidder who fails to make payment on a winning bid will be placed onto a list of banned flyers and you will not be able to make use of FlySafair flights in the future until such time as you have paid for your winning bid.
    You will only be removed from the no fly list at the sole discretion of FlySafair upon payment in full of your winning bid. Upon payment in full, you will receive your flight tokens.

    Flight tokens bought through the auction platform will expire within one year of the purchase date.
    Tokens are only valid for domestic flights operated by FlySafair within South Africa for all passenger types (adults, children and infants).
    Tokens cannot be transferred between different FlySafair user accounts.
    One token equals one domestic one-way flight for a single passenger.

    All token restrictions will be managed during token setup by FlySafair at its sole discretion.
    All flight tokens and flight tickets booked will be subject to FlySafair’s Standard Terms and Conditions of Booking and Carriage.
    The flight tokens will be applied to the cost of the air fare including VAT ONLY and excluding airport taxes and any additional extras, priority boarding, seat and booking changes, etc.
    Users must make successful payment of the applicable airport taxes before a booking will be considered final. Additional services and extras may be added to a booking at the time of booking a flight and will be charged for at the going rate on FlySafair’s website. For these payments, Pick-a-Pay and Paylater payment methods will not be available.
    The token can only be redeemed on the FlySafair website and app (It cannot be redeemed at the airport ticket sales offices and call centre).
    The token pin will not be shared, to redeem the token the user must be logged in with their FlySafair account and will be able to redeem the token on the payment pages.
    Tokens can only be used for new flight bookings, not for any flight modifications or adding of additional extra’s and flights already booked.
    You can make changes to your booking on our website or app as long as you make the changes 1 (one) hour or more before the flight departs. You will have to pay a penalty charge per one-way flight for any changes made. If the new flight you want to book is more expensive than the one you already have, you’ll need to pay in the difference. Your original value of your token will be carried over to the new flight booking.
    Any flight tokens not booked in the given year will be automatically forfeited.
    Should the user for whatever reason miss their flight, you will forfeit your booked flight token as well as any airport taxes and extras already paid by you for this specific booking. If you’re at the airport, or get there within 1 (one) hour after the scheduled departure time, we’ll offer you the below option:
    • You can go on Standby for the next open seat, on the next flight, on that route for an additional Standby fee as per our Standard Terms and Conditions of Carriage.
    Seats on specific flights are not guaranteed and are available on a first-come-first-served basis.
    No cancellations or refunds will be permitted to these bookings made using flight tokens except where FlySafair makes changes to flight times or incurs delays in which case the terms outlined in FlySafair’s Terms and Conditions of Booking and Carriage will prevail.
