PAYPAL40

Hello

Just received an email from Paypal saying they are offering $40 off for first time booking with Airbnb, and you have to pay with Paypal.

Enter code PAYPAL40 during the checkout.

Terms & Conditions: The offer is valid for a $40 discount for first time Airbnb users in Australia who pay for their first Eligible Booking with PayPal during the Offer Period, while supplies last. An "Eligible Booking" is a booking on Airbnb for $80 or more, exclusive of security deposits, cleaning fees, taxes and other fees. The "Offer Period" begins on 29 September 2016 at 08:00am AEST and ends on 31 November 2016 at 11:59pm AEST. To receive the discount, you must (i) be a Australian resident and have a valid Airbnb account, (ii) have never previously made a booking on Airbnb, (iii) request an Eligible Booking on Airbnb and have the reservation confirmed by the host during the Offer Period, (iv) enter the coupon code PAYPAL40 on the check-out page before entering your payment details, (v) have a Australian PayPal account in good standing (if your PayPal account is locked or restricted you will not be able to use the coupon), and (vi) pay for the entire balance of the booking using PayPal. Limit one discount per user. The coupon is not exchangeable or redeemable for cash or credit, and if your booking later qualifies for a refund, the maximum refund you may receive is the amount you actually paid. The coupon is for one-time use only and does not carry over. The coupon may not be combined with another Airbnb offer or discount code. Host payouts will not be affected by permissible guest use of the coupon. Determinations of eligibility will be made in Airbnb's sole discretion. Airbnb reserves the right to any remedy, including denial of the discount or cancellation of your account or reservations, if Airbnb, in its sole discretion, suspects fraud, tampering, violations of Airbnb’s Terms of Service or Payments Terms of Service, or technical errors. PayPal and Airbnb reserve the right to withdraw or amend promotional code or terminate this promotion at any time.

    Wow, I literally just paid for a place 1 min before reading this…

    But referral gives you $45 and gets someone else $45

    • Zak on 19/10/2016 - 18:07

      Maybe you can do both?

      • easternculture on 19/10/2016 - 18:11

        Can you ?

        If that's possible it would be awesome

        • kazispeed on 19/10/2016 - 18:20

          Yes you can. This one is basically $40 off your very first booking with AirBNB. Then you can refer someone and if they book, you both get $45 which you can use for your next booking

        • Zak on 19/10/2016 - 18:23

          @kazispeed: Yeah but I believe EC is saying you can get $45 credit just for using someone's referral link, so why would you want only $40 credit instead?

          But if you can get $45 credit from using a referral link PLUS $40 credit from the coupon code, you can get $85 off your first booking, which would be great.

          @kazispeed:

          I meant do you qualify for both or can your use both in one booking ?

          Awaiting someone to confirm

          @easternculture: I'm 99% sure you can stack. This is a coupon code, a referral is account credit.

        • kazispeed on 19/10/2016 - 22:17

          Not sure why I was neg. Not everyone has the option to get a referal

        • jellykingdom on 20/10/2016 - 10:40

          @Ozymandias: NOPE doesn't appear you can. It seems like account credit, but its applied as a coupon. Can't be stacked

        • CVonC on 22/10/2016 - 18:44

          @jellykingdom:

          you tried it?

          nvm: read futher down

    • Jase1 on 24/10/2016 - 22:48

      It appears though that OP's referral link gives $50 according to a quick test just now

      • CVonC on 24/10/2016 - 22:53

        o.O damn!

        • Jase1 on 24/10/2016 - 22:56

          I dont know if its widespread or not, but from op's link on post it gave that which is even more appealing if people can use ;)

        • CVonC on 24/10/2016 - 22:59

          @Jase1:

          i just booked one today using a friend's referral for $45 :(

        • Jase1 on 24/10/2016 - 23:06

          @CVonC: Doh!

      • boomersgold on 25/10/2016 - 00:23

        Didn't work for me. It says I received a $45 credit even though it initially showed $50. Did anyone get $50?

        • Jase1 on 25/10/2016 - 01:38

          Maybe thats how it reverts back to? I only tested for my own benefit and posted after I found it.

      Coupon is for Australian users only, but not limited to Australian bookings.

    • legelas on 20/10/2016 - 23:33

    According to @easternculture and @kazispeed you can use referral to have a total discount of $40 + $45.

    I never confirmed this

    • GreenVine on 19/10/2016 - 19:21

      Sorry I edited it :)

      • easternculture on 19/10/2016 - 19:23

        According to @easternculture and @kazispeed you can use referral to have a total discount of $40 + $45 (unconfirmed).

        Please take my name out completely . I never mentioned anything about this except asking a question

          @Gaggy:

          FYI You can't post referral links for airbnb anymore

          It's been the case for a while now

          But I'm getting a few $40 referral credits every week , not sure from where. My referral code must be posted on a forum or website that i do not know off

  • treeman on 19/10/2016 - 19:55

    All well and good but I suggest people not automatically book through airbnb. I found a place to stay the other day. Double checked to see if I could book directly and saved well over $40 for my stay.

  • King Tightarse on 19/10/2016 - 20:00

    Thanks OP, I gotta try to remember to use this

  • emaydedewhy on 19/10/2016 - 20:43

    If you plan on spending over $100 on your booking you can save $50 off with Optus Perks

    • pyro love bird on 20/10/2016 - 09:13

      How?

      Edit: found it, but does anyone know if it's stackable with credit?

  • eve on 19/10/2016 - 20:57

    I get an international transaction fee when using my commbank credit card with AirBnB now!!

    • kendo101 on 19/10/2016 - 21:42

      Me too. Didn't realize it was Airbnb UK which was processing the payments.
      So even though there is no FX fee given its charged in AUD, guess i'll have to revert back to my 28 degrees to avoid the international transaction fee.

    • serin on 20/10/2016 - 13:05

      I got stung by the foreign transaction fee on my Citibank credit card when I booked through Paypal a week ago. The Paypal payee was Airbnb GB and that was the reason. I made a complaint to Airbnb and after a few correspondences, they offered me a $25 coupon expired in one year time. So I suppose they are reasonable and may use it in the future, but would probably just use Citibank Plus debit card through Paypal. That said, I still think they should provide an AU Paypal account to local customers.

      • eve on 20/10/2016 - 13:37

        Ah thanks for the tip!

      • eve on 28/10/2016 - 19:33

        Ah AirBnB have said it's not their problem and to talk to the bank. =(

        Goodbye AirBnB…

  • oliman on 19/10/2016 - 21:14

    Where do I put the promo code??

    I am selecting PayPayl while sending the booking request but cant see any text box to put the code….

      It's on the right side, below total price.

      • yahoo on 24/10/2016 - 12:04

        first time airbnb user, can you pls tell me where to put he prom code, I didnt see anything on the right side on the poping up paypal page, and no total amount as well, afrter clicking Agree and Continue button, go to airbnb page final step confirm and pay.

  • TCM on 19/10/2016 - 22:16

    The $45 referral and the $40 paypal does not stack. I just booked and the $45 appears as a coupon discount, which you have to remove before you can apply another one. It doesn't have the option to apply a second coupon.

    • cheesecactus on 19/10/2016 - 22:31

      Thanks for confirming it

  • joeno on 20/10/2016 - 08:45

    Im going to Japan in Feb. How do i find Australian hosts there to use this deal? Thinking 5 days Tokyo is where to use it

    • kazispeed on 20/10/2016 - 13:13

      As long as you are an Australian resident, you can make bookings for overseas

  • lesleigh on 20/10/2016 - 09:17

    THe Dumb Blondes question , does this offer only apply to first time users of AirBnb not if I already have bookings and make another? Thanks

    • sashatheman on 20/10/2016 - 15:09

      They are probably encouraging new people to use airbnb. I just created an account with my wifes name to take advantage of the booking reduction.

  • oliman on 20/10/2016 - 09:52

    Promo code not applying….i had a 1 booking cancelled in the past but no booking completed in the past under airbnb…

    Why my code is not applying discount??

  • richreduk on 20/10/2016 - 11:06

    I already booked and cant seem to get in toouch with them to see if i can claim it back as it was my first booking… anyone know how to try and do this?

    • shonofear on 20/10/2016 - 11:15

      I also looked into it, went through their help section and pretty much said tuff luck if forgot to put code in. I sad also

  • joeno on 20/10/2016 - 14:18

    So if I've booked a place before i can't use this deal?

    Also can I book for any time? Or is it only for stays before November 30 of this year?

    • GreenVine on 20/10/2016 - 18:23

      You should be eligible for discount for any booking dates, as long as you made your booking before Nov 30.

  • Polak on 20/10/2016 - 16:09

    There is a bit of confusion over whether your eligible or not, If you have used Airbnb before but did not pay by PayPal then are you eligible for this if paying by PayPal?, or does it refer to actually using Airbnb for the first time?, I have booked with them before but not paid with PayPal, so I just tried now and would have the discount if required.

  • ceebee on 20/10/2016 - 21:26

    As an Airbnb newbie, is there some reason why when I write Tokyo Japan it shows me South Korea and the other Japanese Islands? Is the search just borked like that? Is that normal? Its doing my head in.

    EDIT: Nevermind, it follows the map exclusively so I was too zoomed out. Geez.
