Deposit Terms & Conditions
For your 2026 Retreat Deposit Payment
1. Deposit Payment
A $500 USD deposit is required to reserve a retreat space under the Flexible Deposit Offer.
The deposit can be applied to any Fluid Retreats program taking place before December 31, 2026.
Upon payment, guests will receive a confirmation email and a short form to indicate their preferred retreat(s). This preference can be changed anytime before final booking confirmation.
2. Refund Policy
Deposits are 100% refundable within 60 days of the original payment date.
Refund requests must be made in writing to info@thefluidfocus.com before the 60-day period expires.
After 60 days, deposits become non-refundable but remain transferable under the terms below.
Refund Processing Fees
All refunds are subject to the deduction of non-recoverable third-party transaction fees (typically 3-4%) charged by our payment processor (e.g., Stripe).
Fluid Retreats does not retain these fees; they are withheld by the payment processor and are not returned to us upon refund.
The remaining refundable balance will be returned to the original payment method within 10 business days of approval.
3. Transfer & Flexibility Policy
Deposits may be transferred to another retreat or participant up to 90 days before the chosen retreat start date.
Transfers made within 90 days of a retreat start date are not permitted.
Deposits cannot be transferred beyond December 31, 2026.
Any transfer must be requested in writing and approved by Fluid Retreats.
4. Application of Deposit
Once a guest confirms their retreat selection, the $500 deposit will be applied toward the total balance of that retreat.
The remaining balance and payment deadlines follow the standard payment schedule of the selected retreat.
5. Price Lock Guarantee
Paying the deposit secures the retreat at the published 2025–2026 early rate, regardless of future price adjustments.
6. Non-Transferable Offers
Deposits cannot be sold, gifted, or exchanged for cash value beyond the terms stated.
Promotional offers, discounts, or credits may not be combined or applied retroactively.
7. Cancellations by Fluid Retreats
In the unlikely event that a retreat is canceled by Fluid Retreats, guests may choose to:
Transfer their deposit to another retreat, or
Receive a full refund (including any previously withheld processing fees).
8. Acceptance of Terms
By paying the deposit, guests acknowledge and agree to the above Terms & Conditions. These policies are designed to provide fairness and flexibility to both guests and the retreat team, while ensuring the smooth operation of all scheduled events.
