Review join requests

On trips that require approval, every booking arrives as a request in the Participants tab. Nothing is charged until you decide.

  1. Open the trip, then Participants. The Join requests card lists who is waiting, with their package and what they entered at checkout.
  2. For each request choose Approve or Decline.
Your decision Their situation What they get
Approve They owe a balance “You’re approved, complete your payment” with a link to pay. Their place is held for 30 minutes once they start paying; they are confirmed when the payment lands.
Approve Nothing to pay “You’re confirmed”. They are in, and added to the trip chat.
Decline “About your request to join”. Nothing was charged, so nothing is refunded.

Nothing arrives by email when a request comes in; the Participants tab and your dashboard’s action items are where you see them. When an approved traveler pays, you receive “Payment received”.
