Airbnb Discount Gift Cards
How to use Airbnb gift cards
Airbnb gift cards are added as credits to your Airbnb account.
Go to the gift card redemption page on airbnb.com or open the Airbnb app and navigate to your account settings. Enter the gift card code from your Card Depot account. The balance gets added as travel credit and applies automatically when you book your next stay.
Credits work for any Airbnb listing worldwide including houses, apartments, cabins, unique stays, and Airbnb Experiences.

How to check your Airbnb credit balance
Airbnb does not have a balance lookup page. Check your balance in your Airbnb account under Payments & payouts, where the card redeems as travel credit.
For other brands, our guide on how to check any gift card balance covers the steps for every major retailer.
Where the savings add up
Airbnb stays for vacations, holidays, and weekend trips add up over the course of a year. Check the current discount above. If you spend $2,000-5,000 a year on Airbnb, buying gift cards first puts real money back in your pocket.
For longer stays like month-long rentals or work-from-anywhere trips, the savings are even more noticeable.
Stacking with Airbnb promotions
Airbnb occasionally offers new user coupons, seasonal discounts, and weekly/monthly stay discounts set by hosts. Gift card credits work with all of these since the credit is your payment method.
If you use a credit card that earns travel rewards to buy the gift cards, you're getting a discount on the gift card plus earning points on the purchase. Double benefit.
Cancellations and refunds
If you cancel a booking paid with Airbnb credits, the refund follows the host's cancellation policy. Refundable amounts go back to your Airbnb credit balance. Non-refundable bookings follow the host's stated policy regardless of payment method.
Common questions
Can I use Airbnb gift cards for any listing?
Yes. Credits work on all listings worldwide plus Airbnb Experiences.
Do Airbnb gift cards expire?
No. No expiration, no fees. See our guide on whether gift cards expire.
Can I add multiple gift cards to my account?
Yes. Each card adds to your total Airbnb credit balance.
Do credits apply automatically?
Yes. Your credit balance is used automatically when you book.
Can I use them for Airbnb Experiences?
Yes. Credits work for both stays and Experiences.
Can I get cash back for a Airbnb gift card balance?
Usually gift cards are not redeemable for cash, but some states require it for small leftover balances. California, for example, requires retailers to cash out gift card balances under $10, and several other states have similar rules with different thresholds. Check your state law for the exact amount.
Airbnb promo codes and coupons
Searching for Airbnb promo codes? Codes are hit or miss, expire quickly, and often exclude what you actually want. A discounted Airbnb gift card works differently: it gives you a guaranteed discount on every purchase, stacks on top of any sale or coupon you do find, and never expires. Check the current discount above, then apply the card at checkout.
