Visit Ukraine continues to improve its services for travellers and tourists by introducing a new convenient feature - Pay Later. It allows you to book without paying, which is especially important in times of uncertainty and changing plans.

How the new feature works, for whom it will be most convenient, and why it is already receiving positive feedback from users - we will tell you further in the article.

What is Pay Later and how does it work?

The Pay Later feature is a new tour payment option available on Visit Ukraine, which allows users to book a tour in Ukraine without prepayment.

When making a booking, at the stage of choosing a payment method, a special ‘Pay Later’ button appears. By selecting this button, tourists are able to reserve a place on the tour without entering bank details and without online payments. The payment is made on the spot - before the tour starts, directly with the guide or a representative of the organiser. This makes the booking process as simple, transparent and user-friendly as possible.

This will help to avoid misunderstandings and ensure comfortable planning of your trip (WhatsApp/Telegram).
