FAQ
2TierTravel questions, answered plainly
How member rates work, what the 14-day trial includes, when you are charged, and who handles a booking once you have made one.
Rates, trial and cancelling
How do private member rates work?
Our travel providers offer some rates only to closed member groups rather than publishing them openly. As a member you can search and book those rates.
Can I see prices before paying for membership?
Yes. Start your free trial and search real trips; you won't be charged until day 15.
Will every booking be cheaper?
No. Member rates are often lower than public prices but not always. We show you the comparison so you can decide.
What does the 14-day trial include?
Full access to member rates on hotels, car hire and activities, plus Ask Alex and country guides.
When will I be charged?
On day 15, unless you cancel. We'll email you a reminder 3 days before your trial ends.
How do I cancel?
From your Profile in a few clicks, any time. No phone calls or forms.
Can I book for family and friends?
Yes. Bookings are made from your own account, so you can arrange hotels, resort stays, car hire and activities for the people travelling with you. Membership itself is personal to you and your household and cannot be shared or resold.
Who handles booking changes and refunds?
Your booking contract is with the travel provider named on your booking confirmation, not with 2TierTravel. That provider is the merchant of record for your booking: it takes the booking payment, issues your confirmation and handles changes, cancellations and refunds under its own terms, so contact them first. If you cannot reach them, email support@2tiertravel.com and we will help you chase it. 2TierTravel is a membership club, not a travel agent, and hotel-only bookings are not ATOL protected.
Membership, protection and support
What does 2TierTravel membership cost?
Membership is £9.99 per month or £99 per year in the UK, and €9.99 per month or €99 per year if you are in the eurozone. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial.
What can I book with 2TierTravel?
Hotels, resort stays, car hire and activities. We do not sell flights or package holidays.
How much can I actually save?
Member rates are typically up to 20% below the best publicly available price, but savings vary by booking. During your trial you can compare a member rate against any public site before you commit.
Are bookings ATOL, ABTA or Package Travel protected?
No. 2TierTravel is a membership club, not a travel agent or tour operator. Bookings are individual travel components supplied by third-party providers and are not covered by ATOL, ABTA, the Irish CAR travel-bond scheme or the EU Package Travel Directive unless the provider says otherwise at the point of booking. Comprehensive travel insurance is strongly recommended.
Do I get a refund if I cancel after the trial?
Your 14-day trial covers the cooling-off period in full. If you cancel before day 15 you pay nothing. After that, a monthly plan is not charged again at the next renewal, and annual plans are assessed case by case under our Terms.
How do I update my card or cancel my membership?
Everything is self-serve from your Profile: update your payment method, download receipts, or end your membership. No phone call, email or contact form is required.
What is Ask Alex?
Ask Alex is our AI travel guide for 170+ countries — destinations, getting around, local healthcare systems, emergency numbers, pharmacies and insurance considerations. It is a travel guide, not a source of personal medical, legal or visa advice.
What are the country guides?
Free member guides that describe the healthcare system in each country — how care is accessed, emergency numbers, typical costs, insurance and pharmacy rules. They describe national systems, not advice for your personal situation.
Which payment methods can I use?
Payments are taken securely by Stripe, which accepts major debit and credit cards plus Apple Pay and Google Pay where available. Card details are held by Stripe, never on our servers.
How is my personal data handled?
We collect only what is needed to run your membership and support you. We do not sell personal data. Your rights, retention periods and how to complain are set out in our Privacy notice.
How do I contact 2TierTravel?
Email support@2tiertravel.com. For anything about a specific booking, contact the travel provider named on your confirmation first — they hold the booking contract.
Still deciding?
Start the free trial, search a trip you actually want to take, and compare the member rate against a public site before day 15.
