Long-awaited Wizz Air innovation: you can now pay on board with this popular credit card!

Wizz Air, the Hungarian low-cost airline, has announced a big change. You can now pay with your Revolut card on Wizz flights.

Fintech expert Ádám Kovács shared on Revb.hu that a member of the Revolut community group was travelling on a Wizz Air flight to Dortmund on 6 June, and during boarding, the crew specifically highlighted that they accept Revolut cards on board. So far, this has not been the case.

Until now, prepaid cards, such as Revolut and other fintech companies, have not been accepted for on-board payments.

Kovács checked with Wizz, who confirmed that they would indeed allow Revolut cards for in-flight payments for a trial period. They added that they would monitor the results and adjust their business strategy accordingly, Forbes reports.

It is not known exactly how long the trial period will last, nor what will determine whether this option will be retained in the future. However, it is certain that all Wizz flights will be affected.
