Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers about eligible hotels, cruises, theme park tickets, travel insurance, cashback timing, and payout rules.
myStayBonus is a cashback travel platform operated by Jourlite Travel LLC.
We help travelers book eligible hotels, cruises, theme park tickets, travel insurance, and other travel products through approved travel-advisor channels, then return part of the commission to travelers as cashback.
Our goal is simple: you book the trip you already want, and receive cashback when the booking qualifies and the supplier confirms the eligible cashback amount.
myStayBonus currently supports eligible bookings in several categories, including:
Availability, booking method, and cashback eligibility may vary by supplier, brand, and product type.
No, our goal is to help you book at the same publicly available or approved travel-advisor rate whenever possible.
For hotels, many major hotel groups offer Best Price Guarantee programs, and eligible bookings may still earn loyalty points and elite benefits.
For cruises, theme parks, travel insurance, and other travel products, pricing is based on supplier-approved rates. Cashback is an additional benefit when the booking is eligible and commissionable.
Cashback comes from the commission or eligible compensation that myStayBonus receives from qualified travel bookings.
The process is:
Cashback is not a discount applied at checkout. It becomes available after the supplier confirms and processes the eligible amount.
No. Only eligible and commissionable bookings qualify for cashback.
Some rates, promotions, packages, or special offers may not generate commission. Examples may include employee rates, travel-agent-only rates, deeply discounted internal rates, certain group rates, resident-only offers, annual passes, or non-commissionable promotions.
We will help verify eligibility whenever possible before or during booking.
Yes. You need a myStayBonus account to submit bookings, track cashback status, and request payout once cashback becomes available.
This helps us match your booking details with supplier confirmation and commission records.
For some hotel brands, you may be able to book directly on the official hotel website using our approved travel advisor information when applicable.
For cruises, theme parks, travel insurance, and many other products, bookings usually need to be completed through myStayBonus or Jourlite Travel LLC in order to qualify for cashback.
Each product page should explain the correct booking process.
No. Travel agent rates are reserved strictly for verified travel professionals.
Hotels and suppliers may verify eligibility and request a valid travel advisor ID or IATA card. If eligibility cannot be verified, the supplier may require a rate difference to be paid or may deny the booking.
For this reason, myStayBonus does not support travel-agent-only rates for customers.
For eligible hotel bookings made through approved channels, your booking may still:
However, final eligibility depends on the hotel brand, rate type, and booking method.

Yes. myStayBonus supports eligible cruise bookings from many major cruise lines.
Depending on the cruise line and sailing, you may be able to request a quote, transfer an eligible booking, or complete a new booking through us.
In most cases, yes.
Eligible cruise bookings may still receive applicable cruise line promotions, such as onboard credit, reduced deposits, free gratuities, drink packages, Wi-Fi packages, or other offers, depending on the cruise line and promotion terms.
Cashback eligibility depends on whether the final booking is commissionable.
Sometimes.
Many cruise lines allow bookings to be transferred to a travel advisor within a limited time after the original booking date. Transfer rules vary by cruise line and may depend on whether the final payment has been made.
If your booking is eligible for transfer and generates commission, it may qualify for cashback.
Most cruise line cashback becomes available around two weeks before sailing. A small number of cruise lines may only release cashback after sailing.
When your cashback becomes available, the cashback status in your myStayBonus account will change to Available. Once the status becomes Available, you can request payout.

If the cruise line does not pay commission because of cancellation, refund, future cruise credit, no-show, chargeback, or other booking changes, cashback will not be available.
