2. METHODS OF PAYMENT
The traveler can purchase the services directly from SA by transfer to a bank account, a debit authorization form from a credit card, internet payment using a credit card or an accredited partner of S.A. (travel agency or independent tourist consultant).
The accepted credit cards are: MasterCard ®, Visa ® and American Express ®. The credit card will be charged in local currency (Croatian kuna) according to the purchase price on the day the bank charges. There may therefore be a difference between the price indicated in the offer and the amount charged by the traveler’s credit card.
Payment by a bank account in another currency is only possible by prior agreement with S.A.
3. BOOKING PROCESS
Immediately after booking, the traveler pays an advance of 30% of the total price of the trip. The balance must be paid no later than 30 days before the first service is performed.
For reservations made between 30 and 15 days before the first service is performed, payment must be made in full amount within 7 days.
For reservations made within 14 days before the first service is performed, it is necessary to pay in full amount within 24 hours.
It is possible to cancel everything if the payment of the advance / transfer has not been made within the time limits indicated above.
Any modification of the route plan will be invoiced according to the conditions above. Any changes made on site during the stay in Croatia must be paid within 4 hours of booking.
4. WS PAY ONLINE PAYMENT AND SECURITY
For security reasons, after completing the online payment, the credit card will not be automatically debited. S.A. will follow in its working hours and manually authorize each payment. Your reservation will be finalized and confirmed after payment is accepted.
S.A. uses the WSPay system for internet payment. WSPay uses the most modern data protection standards: the PCI DSS certificate and the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol with a 256-bit encryption protocol and a transport layer (TLS) which ensures the exchange of data between WSPay and the company’s authorization center with the credit card carried out in a private network which is protected from unauthorized intrusions.
5. ADDITIONAL PURCHASES
In cases where payments according to SA offers are made via a credit card debit authorization form, for any additional services during the trip, which were not initially included for in the offer, S.A. will debit directly the travel credit card, only after written confirmation from the owner of the credit card by email or SMS message. It is not necessary to add an authorization form for these services.
The total amount of all additional services cannot exceed the price of the trip. In the case that the trip price is exceeded, a new authorization form will be required.
In cases where payments for S.A. offers are made by a bank account or by the Internet via a credit card, for all additional services during the trip, which were not included for in the offer, the traveler must make a new payment by the WSPay web page or by a bank transaction.
6. CANCELLATION POLICY
In the case of cancellation of a reservation made by S.A., the following charges will apply:
- 25% from the confirmation until 31 days before the beginning of the first service;
- 50% between 30 and 7 days before the first service is performed;
- 100% if it occurs 6 days or less before the beginning of the first service, or on site.
The percentages indicated apply to the total price of the package contracted by S.A. and not the amounts already made.
IMPORTANT NOTE: depending on the services included in the program created for the traveler, the cancellation rules may be different from those indicated above. These will be clearly specified in the Contract.
7. TREATMENT OF DELAYS
The traveler is not allowed to be more than 15 minutes late for any agreed scheduled services. The traveler is obliged to inform S.A. of any delay exceeding 15 minutes. Between 15 minutes and 1 hour, the waiting charge is € 50.00. After one hour, it is considered that S.A. is no longer able to perform the contracted service and it is canceled with the corresponding costs.
8. SERVICE OF ASSISTANCE AND CHANGES
S.A. advises not to modify a reservation during the season (from April to November) so as not to affect the high quality of its services. If you contact us in time, at the latest 48 hours before the start of a service, S.A. will check the availability and possibility of changing the reservation. If it is possible to make the change, a charge of € 100.00 will apply.
Free assistance can be reached between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. Use of this service outside of working hours may be charged with additional fees.
Assistance costs do not apply in exceptional circumstances. The discussion will be noted and will be used as evidence.

S.A. strongly recommends that its travelers purchase a travel cancellation insurance policy.
10. ACCURACY AND TRUTH OF INFORMATION
S.A. provides its travelers with accurate and high-quality information about its tourism service providers and related services.

In accordance with articles 6 and 21 of the Law on the realization of tourist services (NN 130/7) and article 10 of the Consumer Protection Law (NN 41/14, 110/15) travelers have the right to report complaints about the quality of our services.
In the case of an incomplete service or of an inferior level compared to the contracted package, the traveler must contact the Organizer by telephone immediately and on site. Thus, it gives S.A. the opportunity to correct the lack or to find an alternative solution or to offer financial compensation. After the planned end of the service in question and no later than 7 days after the end of the package, the traveler must declare the lack in writing to the address:
SVETA ANA d.o.o.,
Poljice 26, 20215 Gruda
or reference by e-mail: info@sveta-ana-travel.com
If the traveler did not report the lack on site when performing the service in question or if he did not accept the solution to the proposed complaint, S.A. is not required to take into consideration the subsequent complaint of the traveler.
The written complaint must contain the following information: name and first name of the person making the complaint and the exact address to which to respond. The traveler is required to define the service in question and explain the reasons for his complaint, while providing proof. He must also indicate the solution offered on site by S.A. during the call.
S.A. will only consider fully justified complaints and will draw up and keep a report of the complaint for one year after receipt of it.
As long as the Organizer does not take a written decision on the complaint sent to him, the traveler waives the intermediary of another institution, the right to lodge a complaint and the transmission of information by public or mediatic means.
The amount of price reduction resulting from a complaint can reach the amount of service not consumed or the price difference due to a lower quality level than that agreed by contract. In this case, the traveler waives compensation for ideal damage, unless this is insured by an insurance company that covers this type of expense.
12. RIGHT TO INCREASE AND REDUCE PRICES
The price of the package can be increased only if there is an increase in specific costs (for example the price of gasoline, the amount of taxes or the remuneration for the service of a third party involved in the contract) and if this possibility is clearly indicated in the contract. The increase can occur no later than 20 days before the start of the package. If it exceeds 8% of the price of the package, the traveler is entitled to terminate the contract.
The traveler has the right to a reduction in the price for all periods when there is a shortage in the services contracted in the package, unless S.A. proves that the traveler is responsible for the shortage in question.
