Your spot is secured by purchasing this product through PayPal, which is finalized upon making the first installment.
When purchasing this product, you have two payment options:
- Pay in 4 Installments:
Choose this option to divide the total price (€340) into 4 monthly payments of €85. The subscription will remain active until all installments are completed. Payment for the installments will be automatic and will occur once a month for the next 4 months. 
The payments will be processed automatically from the same account used for the first installment. Please ensure sufficient funds are available on the due date of each installment, as failure to process a payment will result in the subscription being automatically canceled, and your spot will no longer be guaranteed.
- Pay in Full:
Select this option if you prefer to pay the full amount immediately. Upon checkout, you will pay only the first €85. A separate email will then be sent with a link to complete the remaining balance. Once the full payment is processed, the subscription will be deactivated.
