Bonus Weeks
Bonus Weeks are extra vacation weeks used in Interval to find surplus exchanges. These are given at the point of sale and whenever you feel compensation is necessary or want to elevate the owner experience
Giving a Bonus Week
- Interval membership does not have to be active
- Add “Compensation” note to owner file
- Insert # of BW’s given
- Insert reason for compensation
- These BW’s will not be added to the Interval membership until they are ready to use them
- This avoids incurring an expiration date on the BW
- Owners may call BGV Exchange Support team to activate, search, and book
