Deceiving online booking payment form

Southwest needs to put a CLEAR TAB when the customer is trying to use funds to pay for a flight. You clearly have credit/debit and PayPal, but NO clear tab for all other forms of payment, and that my friend is DECEIVING to say the least. I'm very disappointed.

The option for alternative payments such as travel funds or vouchers is listed along side the other payment options.  It may not be a tab, but it is indeed easily accessible and formatted in a way that keep those options out of the way for customers who don't need to use them.

If you would like to share your feedback directly with SW, I encourage you to reach out via one of these methods.

If you want to use vouchers or gift cards also remember that it only works on the full web site and not on mobile

I don't think Southwest is attempting to deceive anyone, but I agree that the link is easy to overlook. I'd suggest you contact Southwest directly so that your concern can be recorded, perhaps they'll consider making it more obvious.

 

Note: If you just recently booked a flight (within the last 24 hours) and did not add your travel funds, you can cancel for a full refund and rebook, using the travel funds this time.
