Arrivia
A white-label travel platform — not a club you join directly.
Arrivia (based in Scottsdale, AZ) is the largest stand-alone travel loyalty provider — a business-to-business platform that banks, brands, and membership clubs use to power their own travel programs. You don't join 'Arrivia' directly; you meet it as the booking engine and rewards system behind a branded club. Members get subscription-based, closed-user-group pricing on 1.5M+ hotels, 30,000+ cruise itineraries from 40+ lines, flights, and 150,000+ activities, earning flexible Savings Credits that redeem dollar-for-dollar toward travel.
Because Arrivia is a white-label platform, the exact numbers come from the branded club you join — but the common structure is an up-front cost to enroll, then a flat recurring membership fee.
Up-front enrollment
Set by the reseller
The branded club you join typically charges an up-front cost to enroll and activate your account.
Recurring membership
Flat renewing fee
Access is subscription-based — a flat membership fee renews (monthly or annually) to keep member pricing and Savings Credits active, much like a Costco or Sam's Club membership.
Fees, terms, and support vary entirely by the branded reseller. Judge the specific club you're offered and get every up-front and recurring cost in writing.
What we liked
- Massive inventory: 1.5M+ hotels, 40+ cruise lines, 150k+ activities
- Subscription model unlocks member pricing instantly — no points to accumulate
- Flexible Savings Credits redeemable toward bookings
Watch out for
- It's a white-label platform — fees, terms, and support vary by the branded reseller
- The consumer experience depends on the partner; some resellers use hard-sell webinars
- Advertised 'wholesale' savings don't always beat public travel sites
The Bottom Line
Judge the specific branded club you're offered, not 'Arrivia' itself — the technology and inventory are solid, but your price and experience depend entirely on the reseller's terms.
Arrivia: Member Reviews
Reviews are submitted by travelers and reflect individual experiences. Travel Club Navigator publishes them as-is and does not edit for tone. Ratings are shared to help you make an informed decision.
Powers a lot of good deals behind the scenes
"I access Arrivia through my club's platform and the cruise and hotel inventory is genuinely competitive. The interface is functional if not fancy. When I compare prices, they usually hold up well."
Great inventory, support can be slow
"The selection of cruises and resorts is broad and the member pricing is real. My only frustration has been reaching support during peak times. Once I got through, they resolved my booking issue fine."
Reliable for our annual cruise
"We book our yearly cruise through the Arrivia-powered portal and it's been consistent. Prices are fair and the process is predictable. Nothing flashy, but it does what we need it to do."
Arrivia: Your Questions, Answered
What is Arrivia?
Arrivia is the largest stand-alone travel loyalty provider — a business-to-business (white-label) platform that banks, brands, and membership clubs use to power their own travel programs. You don't join Arrivia directly; you use it through a branded club.
How does an Arrivia travel club work?
It's subscription-based: members pay a recurring fee to unlock 'closed-user-group' pricing on 1.5M+ hotels, 30,000+ cruise itineraries, flights, and 150,000+ activities, earning flexible Savings Credits that redeem dollar-for-dollar toward travel.
How much does Arrivia cost?
There's no single price — cost depends on the branded reseller you join through. Programs typically charge a recurring membership fee plus optional paid tier upgrades.
Is Arrivia a scam?
Arrivia itself is a legitimate, established technology provider. Negative experiences usually trace back to specific resellers that use high-pressure webinars or overstate 'wholesale' savings — always verify member prices against public travel sites before you buy.
Is Arrivia the same as the travel club I was pitched?
Not exactly. Arrivia powers the booking engine and rewards behind many branded clubs. Judge the specific club's fees and terms, not 'Arrivia' alone.
