How Interval International exchange works

Interval International lets eligible members request a vacation at another participating resort using eligible week or points usage. Start by asking which exchange method your ownership supports and when your original usage would be committed.

Deposit First and Request First

With Deposit First, an eligible member deposits an available home resort week before confirming an exchange. With Request First, an eligible member can search or request an exchange and retain the home resort usage until the exchange is confirmed, subject to the applicable rules. Interval directs points-based members to Request First. See Interval’s explanation of its exchange options.

Verify what your ownership supports

  • Ask the resort or club whether the interest is eligible and whether you must reserve a home week before requesting an exchange.
  • Confirm which membership terms, deadlines, trading or points requirements, and exchange fees apply.
  • Check the cancellation terms and any charges due at the destination before confirming.

Availability depends on what is offered through the exchange program for your travel dates. Keep the confirmation for the exact accommodation before making separate travel arrangements. Consult Interval’s current membership and exchange documents for the rules that apply to you.
