WHAT PARTICIPATION MEANS

What we expect from participating agencies.

We review the business and service information an agency submits. We may ask for clarification before sharing traveler requirements.

  1. An identifiable business

    A business name, U.S. location, working contact details and clear service information.

  2. Specific, written offers

    Quotes that explain prices, services, assumptions, exclusions and terms for the traveler’s request.

  3. Responsible contact and conduct

    Respect for the approved contact process, honest information and no pressure to book. Unresolved concerns can prompt a participation review.

Understand the limits.

Participation is not a government, regulatory or financial certification or a guarantee of performance. Registration or a public package listing does not by itself establish an accepted partnership.

Your agency handles the booking.

Your chosen agency confirms the final price, contract, payment terms and travel services. KaabaSharif coordinates initial quote gathering.

YOUR DETAILS. YOUR DECISION.

Your details stay private. You choose the connection.

Your name, email and phone number stay private during initial quote gathering.

See how the quote process works
  1. Share your trip requirements

    Agencies receive the trip details needed to prepare options, without your direct contact details.

  2. Compare the options

    Review what is included, what it costs and what still needs confirming.

  3. Approve a connection

    Choose an agency and give permission before your contact details are shared.

BEFORE YOU PAY AN UMRAH AGENCY
