What's included in the membership?−Full membership: partner perks at 7,000+ properties (upgrades, hotel credits, breakfasts, VIP welcomes when available), 2% to 3% cash back on stays booked and completed through a Saunterra advisor depending on your membership level, the membership platform to keep every trip in one place, access to curated lists and member reviews, and a real travel advisor whenever you want one.
What's the membership platform?+The Saunterra membership platform is your private travel home base. Keep every trip in one place, from flights and stays to dinner reservations and tours. Your own AI assistant can pull the details straight from your booking emails, so you never have to type them in yourself. Invite travel companions to plan and edit a trip with you, attach tickets and confirmations to each booking, and get a destination-specific checklist before you go. Your public profile shows a globe of the countries you've visited and a snapshot of your favorite trips, and you can see where other members have stayed. When you're ready to book, a real Saunterra travel advisor is available to help you find and reserve your stay, with partner perks and cash back included. Your booking details stay private unless you choose to share them.
How do membership levels work?+Your membership level is based on the trips you complete in a calendar year, and it sets the cash back you earn on stays booked through a Saunterra advisor.
Every member starts as a Wanderer, earning 2% cash back. Complete 4 trips in a year to become an Explorer and earn 2.25%. At 7 trips you reach Voyager and earn 2.5%. At 10 or more trips you become a Trailblazer and earn 3%.
Cash back is calculated on the booking value after taxes and fees. A trip counts toward your level once it's over and includes at least one stay or transportation booking with a confirmation number or document. Overlapping trips count as one. Trips shared with travel companions count toward everyone's level, and cash back goes to the member who made the booking. Your level updates as you add trips, and the level you reach holds through the following year.
How does cash back work?+Book your stay through a Saunterra advisor and earn 2% to 3% cash back, depending on your membership level. Perks and cash back apply only to travel booked and completed through a Saunterra advisor. Cash back is calculated on the booking value after taxes and fees, and is paid out on travel from the prior calendar year. No caps, no blackout dates, no point schemes.
Is this a credit card?+No - Saunterra is a membership club that provides benefits, perks, and technology to its members. You're welcome to book travel with the credit cards of your choosing (and stack your card's rewards on top).
Do I have to book through Saunterra?+Nope - but it's how you earn. Perks and cash back apply to travel booked through the club. That said, our members frequently book across platforms and accommodation types. Our club travel advisors are just an email away if you want help.
What kind of trips is this for?+The ones that matter: dream vacations, off-grid adventures, retreats, long-weekend escapes, and milestone celebrations. If it's on your bucket list, it belongs here. That said, if you're a road warrior and could use some help managing it all, Saunterra is the perfect place to do that as well.
What are peer-reviewed places?+Every inspired trip is reviewed by a member who actually went - no sponsored slots, no algorithms, no AI. The member dashboard is your place to connect with peers who've been; founding members shape it first.
Can I cancel my membership?+Anytime, no questions. Memberships are billed annually and you'll continue to earn cash back and benefit from partner perks until your membership lapses on its anniversary. Note that canceling a booking is separate: cancellation terms are set between you and the travel partner.
