How Credits Work

Earn credits through membership milestones, referrals, and excellent reviews. Every 10 credits = 1 free stay ($299 admin fee waived).

Three Ways to Earn Credits

Credits are rewards for being an active, excellent member. They are not currency—they are a way to earn free stays.

Annual Anniversary

On your membership anniversary each year, you automatically receive 10 credits.

10 Credits = 1 Free Stay

Referral Rewards

Earn 1 credit for each member you refer who is approved and completes their first stay.

10 Referrals = 1 Free Stay

Excellent Reviews

Earn 1 credit for each 5-star review you receive as a host or guest.

10 Five-Star Reviews = 1 Free Stay

10 Credits = 1 Free Stay

When you accumulate 10 credits, you can redeem them to waive the $299 admin fee for a 29-day stay. You only pay the $399 refundable deposit, which is returned after your stay.

This means: No admin fee + Refundable deposit = Completely free stay.

Important to Know

Hosting is Mandatory, Not Incentivized

You do not earn credits from hosting. Hosting is a requirement to participate in 29 Travel Club. If you want to stay as a guest, you must also host a member. This maintains our circular economy.

Credits Are Rewards for Excellence

Credits reward active, excellent members who contribute to the community through anniversaries, referrals, and consistently receiving 5-star reviews.

Every Member Can Earn Credits

Whether you're a new member or a long-time host, you can earn credits through all three methods. The more active and excellent you are, the more free stays you can earn.
