Not always. When you book flights to New Zealand with Alternative Airlines, many of our pay-later options work with debit cards or direct bank payments - no credit card needed.

It depends on the payment plan you pick at checkout. Some options, like Atome or BillEase, may accept debit cards. Others, like Klarna or Afterpay, might require a credit check or a credit card depending on the plan.

We’ll always show you exactly what’s needed before you confirm - no hidden steps, no surprises.

Even if you don’t have a credit card, you can still spread the cost and lock in your trip. Whether it’s a long stay, a family visit or a last-minute booking, we’re here to help make flying to New Zealand more accessible.

Great question. Eligibility depends on the payment provider you choose at checkout. When you book with Alternative Airlines, you’ll see flexible options available in New Zealand - like Slice Pay, Afterpay and Klarna.

Each provider has its own set of criteria. This might include your age, location, and a quick look at your credit or payment history. In most cases, you’ll need to be over 18, have a valid ID, and a registered mobile number or email. Some providers may ask for a few extra details to check the plan works for you.

The best part? You’ll only see the payment options you’re eligible for based on where you’re booking from. Just pick the one that fits, and you’ll get a decision in seconds - no paperwork, no waiting around.

Yes—your flight is usually confirmed straight away, even when you choose to spread the cost.

When you book with Alternative Airlines and pick a Buy Now Pay Later option, we process your booking just like any other. Most flights are confirmed instantly, and we’ll send your travel plan to your inbox as soon as it’s ready.

There might occasionally be a short delay depending on the airline or your booking details, but don’t worry - we’ll keep you in the loop the whole time.

Paying later won’t slow things down. Once your booking’s confirmed, your seat’s locked in and you’re all set to fly.

If you’re ever unsure or need help, our dedicated Customer Service team is here to support you before, during and after booking.

Great question. The short answer? Yes, it can - but it depends on the provider and how you manage your repayments.

Some Buy Now Pay Later services may run a soft or hard credit check when you apply. Others might report your payment history to credit bureaus. Paying on time could help build a positive credit record - but if you miss a payment or fall behind, it could hurt your score.

It’s always worth checking the terms of the provider you’re using. At Alternative Airlines, we partner with a range of BNPL providers available in New Zealand - including ones that are upfront about how they handle credit checks and share data.

BNPL gives you more flexibility, but it’s still credit. So before you book, make sure the repayments work for your budget - so you can enjoy the trip without any added stress later on.
