Refund policies vary by product. Several products — including Wyndham Diamond and Star Alliance Gold — offer full refunds if the upgrade is not approved within the stated timeframe.

We treat your credentials with complete confidentiality and only use them for the specific upgrade process. You are always advised to change your password after the upgrade is complete. For products like Hilton Gold Status and Wyndham Diamond, no password is required.
