Depositing Explained. Get Help Now. The RCI timeshare exchange network facilitates thousands of exchanges every year, giving timeshare owners a passport to a variety of worldwide destinations. Those who own timeshares at RCI-affiliated resorts can choose to use their RCI membership to stay at a different resort. There are two different ways to exchange timeshare accommodations through RCI. The first, RCI Points, involves converting your ownership into points that you can spend on other accommodations.

The second, RCI Weeks, requires that you deposit your ownership into the RCI exchange network and choose from other accommodations of similar value. Timeshare — or shared-holiday ownership — means you purchase a specific period of time, usually a week or more, in a resort property. Timeshare puts holiday-home ownership within the financial reach of those who would like a second home in a destination they love, but may not be able to afford to buy whole ownership — or may not want the degree of financial commitment of a second home purchase.

Resorts typically offer a single week ownership and stay option, with the potential to purchase additional weeks at the same resort, or at others owned by the same developer.

Fractional-ownership properties and destination clubs usually offer longer periods of ownership over several weeks — often at upmarket properties in prime locations. Holiday ownership resorts can provide more spacious accommodation than hotels and may boast more on-site guest facilities. However, without membership of a Holiday Exchange services provider, you will not be able to swap your timeshare week for an alternative holiday elsewhere.

There are currently almost 4, resorts affiliated to the RCI Holiday Exchange network in more than countries, providing an exciting range of holiday experiences. This may not be the same week of the year each time.
