Summary: During your first year, we add up: (1) your verified earnings, (2) your eligible savings, and (3) the face value of the issued travel vouchers/incentives granted to you by the Travel Certification or Host Agency. If that total is under $10,000, we refund your certification dues (enrollment/certification fees paid to Travel Certification LLC) 100%.

Eligibility Window

• Request must be in writing within 30 days after the one-year anniversary of your enrollment.
• Applies only to your first year as a certified travel consultant with Travel Certification LLC.

What’s Included in the Calculation

• Earnings: Commissions and approved bonuses received through your host agency during your first year.
• Savings: Documented savings from eligible industry discounts and privileges used by you or your travel companions during your first year.
• Travel Certification or Host Agency -issued vouchers/incentives: The face value of travel vouchers, credits, or incentives issued to you by Travel Certification LLC or Host Agency during your first year counts toward the $10,000 threshold whether or not you redeem them (i.e., unused value still counts).
• Certification dues for refund purposes: Enrollment fee and monthly access fees actually paid to Travel Certification LLC during that year.

Fair-Effort Criteria (must meet all)

1. Complete the required Travel Certification basic training within 30 days of enrollment.
2. Attend at least 5 host-agency training webinars in your first year.
3. Service a minimum of 10 clients provided by the host agency.
4. Complete at least one free specialist course with a host-agency preferred partner within your first 90 days.
5. Booked at least one vacation package, hotel, or cruise through a preferred partner that has already traveled (completed) or is paid in full and non-refundable within your first year.
6. Maintain valid advisor status in good standing for the entire year and at the time of your request (no payment failures, credit holds, inactive status, or violations of your IC Agreement or program rules).

How to Request

Send a written request (email is fine) within 30 days after your one-year anniversary, including documentation we reasonably require to verify eligibility and amounts (commission statements, booking confirmations/invoices, proof of industry-rate savings, webinar attendance records, and the voucher/incentive issuance documentation).

Notes & Exclusions

• Only vouchers/incentives issued by Travel Certification LLC or Host Agency are counted toward the $10,000; third-party incentives not issued by us are excluded unless expressly funded by us.
• Vouchers/incentives are counted once at their face value when issued and are non-transferable; they cannot be exchanged for cash and may not be double-counted with any other credit or refund.
• One claim per agent. We may update the pledge prospectively; your eligibility is governed by the terms in effect at your enrollment. Subject to applicable law.
