We never stop your waitlist over money. At zero credit, guests keep getting live updates and nobody loses their place — and we nudge you three days ahead.

* The commitment renews each year. Leave partway through one and you only owe back the discount on that year's months — never the remaining term. Day one is US$79 plus a credit top-up, not US$948 up front.
** Prepaid credit: top up from US$10, it never expires, and there's never an invoice after the fact. A text over 160 characters counts as two segments. The credit screen shows the carrier's charge and your bill side by side — the same number, computed by the same code.
