I couldn't believe my ears when I was told that the escrow used by the timeshare store wouldn't use either Paypal or a credit card to accept my deposit but requested a cheque.
Is that your experience with other companies.
I know I paid for my first points from Disney by credit card .

That is my same experience when I purchased a resale.

I experienced the same thing. There was one difference. My contract said it would not accept credit cards, but would accept a check from the credit card account.
We just found out Disney approved our resale, and we close on Oct 1st. Looking forward to the DVC experience.

1) Most contract deposits require cash or check or bond.
2) Timeshares and real estate transactions are no different.
3) Disney accepts a credit card, because they are the developer.
4) I have seen developers take a credit card to make a sale.
5) Credit cards charge the company approx 2.1%-3.7%.
6) Usually, only a developer would add costs by accepting cards.
7) Brokers can't get reimbursed, so they usually don't take cards.
