PAYMENT PROCEDURES

SERVICE CHARGES AND RENTALS
What is this fee?
Our agency charges a fee for its service to help you find a furnished room or apartment for rental in Chile. This fee is charged to cover the agency operating expenses. Its amount is independent on the rental price; it varies according to the length of stay in the case of monthly rentals of student residences, shared apartments, family homes or private flats.

When is the fee charged?
This fee must be paid only once and no later than the time when the housing is rented. To secure the housing reservation it is preferable that you send this fee in advance by using either of the four methods outlined below. No new fee is charged if you decide to change lodging before the first month of your stay.

TO GET INFORMATION ABOUT THE AGENCY FEE, PLEASE CHOOSE THE TYPE OF LODGING OF YOUR PREFERENCE:
> FURNISHED ROOMS AT RESIDENCE OR SHARED FLAT/HOUSE > Agency Fee
> FURNISHED & PRIVATE APARTMENTS > Agency Fee


METHOD OF PAYMENT OF THE AGENCY FEE
To secure your reservation in advance, you may send the amount corresponding to the 100% of the guarantee deposit for the room or apartment + the 100% of our agency fee by means of either of these methods of money transfer to Chile:

OPTION 1:
WISE www.wise.com (we get the money directly in our Chilean bank account)
Wise is cheaper and faster than most banks – and creating an account only takes a few seconds.

OPTION 2: WESTERN UNION www.westernunion.com (we get the money in cash here in Chile)

OPTION 3:
OUR INTERNATIONAL BANK ACCOUNT: From March 2023 on, through an electronic transfer to our international bank account in US Dollars in Citibank, U.S.A.

This money has to be addressed to our agency's Director. Please request more details via e-mail.
All commissions required by these platforms or banks, are at your cost and have to paid separately from the total money we have to receive here in Chile.

We will acknowledge the reception of these funds via e-mail sending a receipt, as well as we will give you all the accommodation details as housekeeper´s name, address and phone number, directions on how to get the place from the Santiago airport, etc.

If you do not wish to pay the fee in advance, we will not be able to secure the reservation of your preferred lodging.

REGARDING THE LENGTH OF STAY
It is important that you define the total length of your stay when you make your reservation at our agency, since that will help us define our fee that will be charged as well as help us determine when that room or apartment will become available for another visitor.
Please, consider that student housings (residences and shared apartments) require a stay period of 5 months as a minimum (since mid-February or March 1st to the July 31st; since mid-July or August 1st to Decembe 31st).
