Payments, cards and receipts

How you pay


You pay in the app when you book. You can pay with:


  • A credit or debit card
  • Apple Pay (iPhone) or Google Pay (Android)
  • DropIn credits, packages and free-day coupons, which apply automatically at checkout


Prices on the center page are per child, per session. DropIn does not add a booking fee to that price.


Payments are processed securely by Stripe. DropIn never stores your full card number.


Manage your cards


Go to Account > Billing > Payment methods.


  • Add Payment Method to add a card.
  • Set Default to choose the card we charge first.
  • Remove to delete a card.


Your default card pays anything that your DropIn credits do not cover.


See your payments and receipts


Go to Account > Billing. The Activity list shows payments, late cancellation fees, no-show fees and credits.


Tap a payment to see the Breakdown (what you paid with credits and what with your card) and Paid with. Tap View receipt for the receipt.


A payment failed


  • Check that your card is valid and not expired.
  • Try another card, Apple Pay or Google Pay.
  • If it still fails, tap Account > Contact support.



  • DropIn credits and gift cards
  • Cancel a booking and get a refund
