DEPOSIT
Your Deposit is non-refundable. Your deposit is non-transferable, unless stipulated in these Terms and Conditions otherwise.

TOTAL PAYMENT
The Total Balance Payment is due prior to the departure date of the Retreat specified on the Website or your traveler Trip Board (the “Payment Balance Due Date”). IF COMPANY DOES NOT RECEIVE YOUR TOTAL PAYMENT ON OR BEFORE THE PAYMENT DUE DATE, COMPANY MAY CANCEL YOUR RESERVATION WITHOUT NOTICE AND WITHOUT ANY REFUNDS.

PAYMENT INSTALLMENT DUE DATES
If you do not pay the full total amount of trip price upon registration ( which means you are making payment installments) you agree to pay payments on time, according to the payment schedule provided by VIVE Society LLC. Please know that these due dates are determined by the resort / hotel / lodging / suppliers , therefore, VIVE Society LLC has no control or capability of modifying these dates. If you do not pay the agreed payments on time, your spot on the trip will be released with no possibility of refund or you will be assessed a late fee. This decision is determined by our supplier contracts. In the case that VIVE Society LLC cancels the trip for any reason, and you have not made your payments on time, you waive your right of refund for any payments already submitted. This is because your failure to pay on time may have caused Company to breach a supplier contract, incurring loss.

Payments must be received by 11:59 PM Eastern Time on the stated due date. In the event that the Company is able to maintain your reservation after you fail to make a payment on time, a $150 late fee per traveler will be assessed. Acceptance of late payment and any associated late fee does not waive the Company’s right to cancel the reservation. The Company is not obligated to maintain any reservation that is not paid in full by the stated due dates. If you want to make smaller payments known as “chip away” between payment installment dates, you can do so on your Trip Board. Travelers that make chip away payments are still required to have the full amount due paid for each installment due date. Not all trips allow chip away.
