Starting this fall, a reimagined WorldMark Exchange Plus will be launched, and a brand-new WorldMark Exchange Express will be introduced for new and existing WorldMark owners. Some major updates include:

• A new credits purchase will be required to enroll in the WorldMark Exchange program.
• A flat rate of 9,000 WorldMark trade credits will be allocated regardless of the qualified third-party weeks suite size or season, or the points-based timeshare value.
• WorldMark Exchange program benefits will automatically expire 5 years after purchase. 

The WorldMark Exchange program allows new purchasers of WorldMark to leverage qualified third-party timeshares for more vacation opportunities and to accelerate their progress toward VIP by WorldMark status. 

There are two WorldMark Exchange program types: WorldMark Exchange Plus and WorldMark Exchange Express. 

The difference between WorldMark Exchange Plus and WorldMark Exchange Express are outlined below:

• WorldMark Exchange Plus: New purchasers can trade qualified weeks-based third-party timeshares (affiliated with RCI or Interval International) for WorldMark credits. These credits can now also count toward VIP by WorldMark status.
• WorldMark Exchange Express: This new option allows new purchasers to leverage points-based third-party timeshares to boost their VIP by WorldMark status. 

New and existing WorldMark owners who make a new developer credits purchase, own qualified third-party weeks or points-based timeshares, and are enrolled in VIP by WorldMark. 

A flat rate of 9,000 WorldMark trade credits will be allocated per each qualified third-party weeks or points-based timeshare enrolled in either WorldMark Exchange Plus or WorldMark Exchange Express. 

Yes, owners will be awarded trade credits for use after depositing their qualified third-party weeks into RCI or II through WorldMark Exchange Plus. 

No, owners will not be awarded trade credits for use through WorldMark Exchange Express. They are only available to accelerate their progress toward VIP by WorldMark status.
