Best Value Guarantee Terms

What is the Best Value Guarantee?

The Best Value Guarantee ensures that the price paid when combining our price with the redemption of any loyalty currency (where applicable) will match the lowest publicly available market price of any other qualified seller. If our combined value is not better, we will match the qualified seller’s lowest market price at the time of purchase or within 24 hours of purchase.

1. Reporting a lower price claim.

   You must contact us within 24 hours after Your purchase or booking with us to make a claim under the Best Value Guarantee (“Claim”). The lower price must be available for purchase at the time You contact us, as determined solely by our customer service representatives. All qualifying purchases or bookings must be made using a valid credit card with a United States billing address.

2. What is considered a lower price?

   The lower price must be for an identical product or booking as determined in our sole discretion. All product or booking details must exactly match the details of the product You purchased or booked through us, for example the specific hotel (including room type), the specific rental car company and vehicle class, the applicable refund policy, the dates and times of travel, the specific lifestyle product, and other purchase or booking details including cancellation policies.

Best Value Guarantee Terms & Conditions

1. Best Value Guarantee. Best Value Guarantee valid for up to 24 hours after booking. A lower price than our combined value must be found within 24 hours of booking and verifiable proof is required of public availability of such lower price. If you find a price lower than our combined value by greater than one dollar and your request is approved, we will match that lower price. Purchaser will be responsible for any change or cancellation fees. To verify a lower price, proof must be provided by calling Customer Service at (855) 663-4954, and by providing advertisements or web site addresses as directed by the Customer Service representative. We reserve the right to determine the validity and authenticity of the proof provided.
