Sell an Airbnb Gift Card in Nigeria and Ghana: What £100 to £500 Pays

An Airbnb gift card pays ₦618,357 for £500 in Nigeria on 24 October 2026, and ₵5,427.24 in Ghana. That works out at ₦1,236.71 per pound, the highest rate on our pound column and the largest single payout printed anywhere in the 53 bands. The next card down, All in 1, pays ₦6,649 less for the same £500. Every figure below comes from our rates page, captured at 19:15 today.

What does an Airbnb gift card pay in naira and cedis?

Airbnb sits on one band, £100 to £500. The board prints ₦123,671 at the bottom and ₦618,357 at the top, with ₵1,085.45 and ₵5,427.24 on the Ghana side. There's no step up in the middle, so £1 pays the same whether your voucher reads £120 or £480.

The £100 and £500 rows are printed on the board. The middle rows come from the top of the band: ₦618,357 ÷ 500 × 200, then the same arithmetic in cedis. A £180 or £340 voucher scales the same way, so you don't need a special quote for an odd size.

Where Airbnb sits on the pound board

Eleven pound brands share twelve bands today, because Paysafe carries two. Airbnb leads the column, and the distance to the bottom is the widest gap on the whole board.

Top to bottom reads 16.25%, and that number hasn't budged in a single snapshot since 11 October, when the pound column widened to twelve bands. Cedis tell the same story, 10.85 down to 9.34.

On a £500 voucher the choice of card is worth ₦86,437, or ₵758.64. On a £100 voucher it's ₦17,287. That difference comes from the card you hold, not the day you sell.

Timing is a much smaller lever. Airbnb's per-pound rate has stayed between ₦1,231.88 and ₦1,241.01 since 11 October. That's ₦9.13 of drift, or ₦4,564 on a £500 voucher, about 19 times narrower than the card gap.

Why a travel card pays more per pound than a shop card

A pound on this board isn't priced off the exchange rate. It's priced by how widely that balance can be spent after you hand it over. Airbnb credit reaches listings in every currency zone. Currys credit reaches one UK electronics chain, and the column prices it at ₦1,063.84. The narrower the destination, the lower the printed rate.

The same logic keeps the column in step. Between yesterday's 22:18 snapshot and today's 19:15 capture, all 53 bands on the board moved by 0.392%. Airbnb moved with the rest. Rates are set per column, not per card, which is why chasing a better card beats waiting for a better hour. Our rate history tracks that pattern across five weeks of snapshots.

Should you sell one £500 Airbnb voucher or five £100 codes?

It makes almost no difference. Five £100 vouchers fetch ₦618,355.00, while one £500 voucher fetches ₦618,357.00. Two naira separate them, which is rounding on the board, not a penalty.

Ghana lands the same way. Five £100 codes come to ₵5,427.25 against ₵5,427.24 for the single £500 code. One pesewa.

Don't carry that rule to every card. On Apple a bigger dollar voucher pays a higher rate per dollar, so splitting a $500 balance into five $100 codes costs you ₦4,655. Our full pound list keeps face value and unit price in separate columns for exactly this reason.

How to sell an Airbnb voucher from Lagos, Abuja or Accra

1. Open the Airbnb card page and confirm your voucher sits inside £100 to £500.
2. Photograph the code and the receipt flat, in daylight. A blurred code is the usual reason a trade stalls.
3. Enter the face value in pounds, then pick your payout: bank transfer, OPay or Moniepoint in Nigeria, MTN MoMo or Telecel Cash in Ghana.
4. Check the quote against the table above. Anything above ₦1,236.71 per pound is a screenshot, not a price.
5. Expect the money in 15 to 30 minutes on a working day.

The ceiling test matters more on a travel card. A £500 Airbnb voucher is the biggest number on the board, so it's the one fake vendors quote most often. Our scam guide walks through the fee tricks in detail.

The Naira view also prints a marker of ₦1,330 per $1. That marker is a dollar figure, and nothing on the pound column is measured against it. Compare pound cards with pound cards, and check the cedis column separately.

Frequently asked questions about Airbnb gift cards

Can I sell a £50 Airbnb gift card?

Not at a printed rate. The band opens at £100, so a £50 code has no row on the board. Hold it, combine it with another code if the issuer allows, or ask for a manual quote before you send the number. H&M and Matalan carry the same £100 floor.

How much is a £200 Airbnb gift card in naira?

A £200 voucher fetches ₦247,342.80 in Nigeria and ₵2,170.90 in Ghana. Both come from the top of the band, so the payout climbs in a straight line with face value.

My card is in dollars. Will it be quoted?

No. The board lists Airbnb in pounds only, £100 to £500, so a dollar or euro voucher has no printed row. Check the rates page before you promise anyone a number.

Do Airbnb gift cards sell in Ghana?

Yes. Ghana rates run from ₵1,085.45 at £100 to ₵5,427.24 at £500, and MoMo payouts usually land inside 30 minutes in Accra or Kumasi.
