Monthly Payment Information:

After payment of deposit, an agent will be emailing you. There is a two-step process of reserving your room. First, you must submit your deposit and set up your monthly payment option. Your deposit must be in one booking; monthly payments can be individually billed.

To complete your reservation, you are required to fill out a payment authorization form for automatic monthly payments to begin the following month after you've placed your deposit. You can pick a monthly payment deduction date (i,e; the 2nd, 24th, etc.) that works best for you. You may change this date at any time, but you will have to fill out another form to reflect the new date. You may also make additional payments towards your balance and/or pay off your balance early through your account on our client portal. Please note: If you fail to complete your payment authorization forms, your room reservation is not confirmed and will be resold at the discretion of the agent.

Late (Reinstatement) payment fees: You are allowed 10 extra days past your scheduled monthly due date to remit payment on your reservation. The billing company will attempt daily for 10 days to charge your card on file for payment. Payment must be made by 5pm CST on the 10th day to avoid room or ' traveler spot' to be processed for cancellation. The hotel has imposed a reinstatment fee of $100 per traveler, if room has not been resold after 5pm CST, and traveler wishes to rejoin the room. If traveler does not wish to rejoin on their reservation, and there are other's in the room, the room will then change to a lesser occupancy, resulting in higher payments for every other traveler on the reservation to cover the overall cost of the room. All payments towards room will not be refunded to traveler at any time, unless traveler has purchased travel insurance - in which, traveler must contact their travel insurance company to submit a claim for a partial refund. To allow us to provide quality service, this will be strictly enforced. All reinstatement fees will be the financial responsibility of the traveler.

PLEASE NOTE: Final payments are due in full 60 days before the event. If final payment is not received by the final payment due date, we reserve the right to cancel any traveler from the trip. If a traveler is canceled due to non-payment, iTravel2Getaway, LLC. standard cancellation policy will apply.

iTravel2Getaway, LLC is not responsible for travelers that do not abide by our terms and conditions.
