Customer decides to pay 45% of this booking price in the currency of his choice (e.g. PLN) while the Customer choses to pay the remaining 55% of the price using his Reward Points. In such a case, the Customer will gain new Reward Points for this transaction for the proportion of the price paid in currency: 450 PLN (1000 PLN x 45%) – according to the point calculation ratio. The new pool of points (22,5 points = 450/20). The new points will be available to user up to 2 days upon successful consumption of the transaction, in accordance with point 2 of this Attachment.
