How to swap or sellback a booking

Life is unpredictable. That’s why we’ve made it easy for you to swap or sellback your Pinktada booking.

When you book with Pinktada, you’re actually buying “Room Night Tokens” (RNTs) which can be swapped for a different Pinktada booking or sold back for PinkCash up to 2 days before check in. Your RNTs have a market value, which can increase or decrease over time. If demand is high when you swap or sellback your RNTs then you may even make a profit!
