1. Payment of Mission Fees

To make the payment of your Mission fees easier for you, we accept MasterCard, American Express and Visa as a means of payment.

When you return your application and are registered as a participant, HonestReporting.com will charge your credit card an initial deposit of $500 per person.

Sixty days before the start of the Mission, your card will be charged 50% of the balance of the Mission. Thirty days before the start of the Mission, your card will be charged the remaining balance.

Please note that a 3.5% surcharge will be added to cover our credit card expenses.

If you wish to pay by check, payment must coincide with the schedule detailed above, or earlier. Your checks should be sent direct to our U.S. office:

Please note: We need to provide the hotel with your credit card number which will be used only to charge "extras" (room service, laundry service, telephone calls or anything not included in the cost of the Mission). You will be asked upon acceptance of registration for your credit card details, irrespective of how you are paying for the Mission fees.
