Your point. Geezus

The site will reveal cost. 

 

Not that I'll ever use them, but just comparing both.

Onward ticket issues the ticket within seconds for $16.

Onward flight issues within 12 hours, or 4 hours for an additional $5.50 to the standard $7 charge.

Note, onward flights only accepts PayPal and Credit cards for payment.

I'm sure folk can Google the options for "rent a ticket" ..

Useless info.  Of course there will be payment via card option .

Not sure why you think that's unusual or noteworthy.  Which other payment options would you expect from such an online service?

Debit card?

How do they know it's a debit card or credit card? Whenever I use my debit cards it's as a Visa or Mastercard which is exactly the same as a credit card?

 

Edit: I just had a look as I don't have a credit card. In overview Onward flight states: 

You have the option to pay using Paypal or card payment. 

 

It does then say credit card below but I would just put my debit card details in there, same as I buy all my real tickets?

Debit and Card number sequences are different.

Some systems will accept debit/credit cards, others that specifically want a credit card, will not accept a debit card.

Even my Agoda bookings specifically say credit card number etc etc but always pay with Debit Mastercard from Chase

 

Out of interest (and not saying it was yourself) but those putting confused emoji on my post further up the thread need not be lol

 

The culprit reading it knows exactly the reason for the post !

 

Lets move on...

Surely you're joking. With very few exceptions, debit cards are accepted whenever "credit cards" are accepted online. As you've never used such a service yourself, you simply jumped to a nonsensical conclusion.

Yep, that's the way I understand it. The whole point of debit card was to replicate a credit card

Surely not.

Certain airlines will only accept online payment using a credit card, not a debit card.

 

Roojai Insurance, for example, state online payments by credit/debit card, but when entering a debit card number the system won't process it.

When you contact customer services, you are informed the payment system only accepts credit cards, but they can manually process debit card payments.

That said, you have no idea if Onward flight accept debit cards or not, but you are stating it as fact that they do not.

 

By the way, Onward ticket also says "credit cards" on their site
