Payment Options

Cash upon arrival

You can pay all your fees upon arrival. Boquete has plenty of ATM's where you can withdraw your money from if you are traveling with a debit or credit card with a valid PIN number. Within a 1 km radius of our school there are about 5 cash points and a similar amount of banks.

PayPal or Credit Card

Unfortunately, at the moment, PayPal account holders in Panama cannot receive money. If you are not a travel agency or hotel, banks do not allow you to charge a credit card without having it physically. They do this to avoid fraud. We are currently working to setup a travel agency in order to be able to process credit cards. Sorry for any inconvenience this might cause you.

Checks

We accept checks from any local bank (from bank accounts within Panama) at no extra cost, on or before the day your course starts.

We also accept travelers checks as a form of payment as long as your course lasts for more than 2 weeks. The reason for this is because in Boquete's banks even travelers checks take 2 weeks to clear.

If you would like to pay with an international check (from a bank account outside of Panama) we need to receive the check at least 30 days before your course starts and you have to add $15 to the total cost of your course to cover the processing fees imposed by the banks in Panama.

Checks from international banks (foreign to Panama) take around 15 days to clear and local banks charge $15 to process them.
