ELITE
Annual Membership
Do you have some new Elite
Members you’d like to enroll under an annual membership instead of a monthly
subscription? Perhaps you’re on a monthly yourself and would like to make the
switch to an annual membership?
Normally, the annual option
is only available to our Members, but Elites can now get set up for the annual
payment option (and save a lot of money in the process) under the Elite Annual
Membership promotion!
New Elite Annual Membership
- $699!
- With an enrollment fee of $300 and a monthly subscription fee of $60, Elite Members would normally expect to pay $1,020 a year.
- During this promotion, Elite Members can enroll for a full year at $699 (a savings of $321, which is like getting 5 months for free).
- The new Elite Member receives 330 QV, 230 CV and 1,020 HopPoints that can immediately be used to book a HopTrip.
The usual $45 Fast Start Bonus PLUS an additional $100 Sponsor Cash Bonus.
Elite Upgrade Annual Membership - $399!
Are you an existing Elite
Member who wants to “upgrade” to the annual payment schedule under the Elite
Annual Membership promo? No problem! Instead of the $699 enrollment fee that a
new Elite would pay, you would simply be charged with a $399 upgrade fee*. Along with that upgrade, you’d receive 30 QV, 200 CV and 720 HopPoints to add
to your bank for immediate use.
Sponsoring Elites will
receive commissions on annual memberships monthly for the next 11 months. 30 QV
will be designated each month for rank qualification. 30 CV will be awarded in
the Unilevel for pay out each month.
*Annual renewal date is 12
months from day of upgrade or enrollment with the Elite annual
membership.
What a great opportunity! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteElite membership so far has cost more money than it is worth. There is absolutely no customer service through Hop Rocket when traveling overseas. The savings are minimal and most times you can get a better deal through the airlines.
ReplyDeleteDear Unknown,

This is the stupidest thing ever... what happened to it being SO EASY to just go "3 and free"??? So now those people who failed to that are supposed to pay $399 to upgrade and get out of the monthly fee? And if we convince someone to pay $699 instead of $300 to sign up, does that person still count toward your own 3 and free? Sure seems like the company is just trying to get a bunch of upfront money... (why?)
ReplyDeleteDear trimsidetimer,
DeleteThe 3 & Free is alive and well. The "Elite Annual Membership" promotion won't change that. Remember, this is a promotion that ends on Dec 31st.
We received a considerable amount of feedback from our Elite Members that in addition to a monthly subscription option, they'd like to see an annual subscription option that was affordable and convenient. We'll see what kind of response we get during the length of the promotion, but so far, it's clear that there are at least some Elites who prefer this pricing option.
Back to the 3 & Free: You are correct that if you bring in a new Elite Member during this promotion at the annual price, they won't continue to count as one of your 3 after the first month because they are not set up on a monthly subscription. In that case, you'd have to rely on your monthly Elites to keep you qualified for the 3 & Free.
Remember, new enrollments for Members and Elite Members under the annual pricing count toward your required $180 to qualify for the 3 & Free. But after this promotion is over, Elites will be enrolled on a monthly subscription.
There are not currently any plans to change the Elite subscription to an annual schedule. If such a decision were made, we'd take another look at the 3 & Free. We know how valuable that is to our Elite Members and we have no intention of taking it away. At the same time, we will continue to run various promotions based on the feedback we are receiving from our leaders.
They are intended to help you build your business, not take away from it.
Please feel free to call in if you'd like to discuss your concerns any further, we appreciate your feedback. 888.434.5850, Monday-Friday.
Thank you!

ReplyDeleteIs there a yearly savings plan for an existing elite member?
ReplyDeleteDear Marilyn,
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I fully understand your question, so check out this reply and add any additional questions you have in response.
Existing Elite Members can stay on the monthly subscription they are on or they can upgrade to the annual subscription option for the duration of this promotion.
Either way, Elite Members will earn HopPoints and volume. HopPoints can be used as soon as they are earned, but they still expire in 1 year from the date they are issued. Is that what you're asking about?
If by savings plan, you are referring to some kind of retirement plan, no, nothing like that is set up.
We appreciate your question. Please let us know what additional questions you have!

I think prices are way to high for what you get in this club too. Did you all think that people are already taxed at Christmas time. I can't pay 400 more right now. Crazy time to plan this and then it is due again next year at Christmas. YOu must all be rich already. You want people that love to travel and want to travel more for less and make a business this won't help us. I do not feel people can travel more than once or twice and not any value for 60. month or 80 for some. Other clubs only charge 300-400 and get 3 and NEVER PAY MONTHLY FEES OR YEARLY FEES. Seems to me to want more upstart money too yet the owner is a billionnaire i have heard. Really, this is not changing for better yet. Also, trips I have seen are only weeks away. No one can plan time off work, airfares are very high, That is crazy too. We need trips in USA and international at least 6 months away and 2 or 3 of the same a year as some people can not aways go at the time you have planned. Airfare is very high right now too and we need to get it way out for better prices. We need lots of trips too not 3 or 4. This has to improve alot over the next maybe 3 months for me to stay and work this. To expensive for beginning business people to me.
ReplyDeleteI also do not think earned points or reward points of any kind we get should expire. Some times people just can not travel within certain times and then we lose the points that is just not fair. THings need to be a changing here at Hop Rocker for people to want to join this as elites!
ReplyDeleteDear World Traveler,
DeleteThank you for taking time to post your thoughts. The feedback is always appreciated.
We hear you, the holiday season can be a tricky time to set money aside for extras. We're sorry you weren't able to take advantage of the Elite Annual Membership promotion.
Our goal is to offer promotions year-round, not just around the holidays. We offered the RankUp!, 20/20, Gift the Gift of Christmas, Christmas Cash and the Elite Annual Membership promotions over the last 2 months. Some don't cost a cent to take advantage of while others do require a financial commitment. Elite Members can pick and choose according to their means and preference.
Many Elite Members did take advantage of the Elite Annual Membership promotion by enrolling new Elites or by upgrading to the annual payment plan. We should reiterate that there are no plans to make this promotion permanent. After this promotion ends in a few days, Elites will only be able to enroll on the monthly subscription.
Even though it was a financial commitment for the participating Elite Members to make during the holiday season, they will reap the savings associated with the promotion for a full year. But, as you stated, it's not for everyone. We hope that one of our other bonuses were enticing and helpful to those who were not able to take part in the Elite Annual Membership promotion.
After we wrap up this holiday season, we plan to introduce other promotions in Winter and Spring, so keep an eye out for those. Again, promotions are not just a year-end, holiday offering.
As for HopTrips, yes, some are within 2 weeks and the savings associated with that kind of deal keeps in mind that it's a last minute offer. Not everyone will be able to take advantage of a Daily Deal. But we offer them for those who can. In addition to Daily Deals, we'll continue to offer a wide array of Insider Deals and HopTrips that are affordable (Lowest Price Guarantee!) AND that allow you to plan in advance to arrange the time off work, etc.
We will consider your feedback on the expiration of points. One of the biggest improvements HopRocket made during our pre-launch was to do away with the vesting period associated with HopPoints. As soon as they are earned, they can be used. They don't expire for a year so we're hopeful that it gives our Elites plenty of time to use the points they've earned. Even so, your opinion counts and we will certainly take that into consideration.
We'll finish by reminding you and everyone else reading this blog that you are welcome to post comments and concerns here, but we're also standing by to offer support over the phone. Our Customer Service team is professional, knowledgeable and ready to listen to any concerns you have. Call toll-free at 888.434.5850.
Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts. Feel free to reply or call in.
Warm regards,
-The HopRocket Squad
I have to agree 100% with World Traveler..Thank you for expressing what many currently feel. I'd like to add too that members and elites should be allowed to use points/rewards whenever they want/need to travel and not only exclusively for Hop Trips. As elites, we're not selling discount travel to be used as we like, instead it's a club to travel with other elites/members limiting how someone really wants to travel so this is not for everyone. It would be great to be able to use points/rewards as we want and when we want...that would be beneficial for all!
ReplyDeleteDear Concerned,
DeleteThank you for your comment. As you are in agreement with World Traveler on his/her comments, we'll ask you to read the response we just posted to him/her.
As for your additional thoughts on being able to use HopPoints on more than just HopTrips, consider that feedback duly noted.
The benefit of being an Elite Member with HopRocket is that you are going to have access to our booking engine which simply offers the best prices around. That's without using HopPoints or any extras. Pay your monthly membership and you have access to save on travel. You get lower prices than ANYONE else, backed by our Lowest Rate Guarantee.
The added benefit of awarding HopPoints and allowing our Elite Members to use their HopPoints to book HopTrips is the cherry on top. Some of these HopTrips will be promoted as a group event (like the upcoming Punta Cana HopTrip in March) while other HopTrips will only be booked by 2 people. The goal is to provide options to save even MORE money than we're already offering.
When we pay you dollar for dollar in HopPoints, it truly is just like putting your money into a travel savings account. We're just encouraging you to spend your HopPoints in a certain way (by offering HopTrips) so you get the most bang for your buck.
Even so, we will certainly take your feedback into account. How, specifically, would you like to be able to use your HopPoints outside of what is currently offered? We're all ears.
Thanks again for your time and input! We rely on it to make us better.

I just read the last posts and I would like to be able to use Hop Points for activities in countries for optional tours or on AIRFARE would be awesome. Thanks
