Location Boost

Expand your monitoring reach with Location Boost, an add-on that increases your location limit from 3 to 6 monitored locations.

What is Location Boost?

Location Boost is an add-on service that expands your appointment monitoring capabilities by adding 3 additional location slots to your account, bringing your total from 3 to 6 monitored locations.

Key Features
  • Additional locations: Increases your limit from 3 to 6 locations total
  • Geographic flexibility: Monitor locations across different regions or states
  • Independent billing: 90-day term that operates separately from your monthly service
  • Grace period protection: Continues working until your service expires if boost expires first

Pricing & Terms

Pricing Details
  • Cost: $9 for 90 days
  • Billing cycle: Independent of your monthly service renewal
  • Duration: 90 days from purchase date (lasts for 3 full service terms)
  • Renewal: Only purchase when you need additional locations

How Location Boost Works

Activation

When you purchase Location Boost:

  1. Your location limit immediately increases from 3 to 6
  2. You can add up to 3 additional locations right away
  3. All 6 locations begin monitoring simultaneously
  4. The 90-day countdown starts from your purchase date

Grace Period System

Important Protection Feature

Location Boost includes smart grace period logic:

  • If your Location Boost is set to expire before your service, the expiration is extended for the duration of the service term as a courtesy
  • If your service expires first, Location Boost stops with your service
  • When you renew your service, any active Location Boost automatically works during your renewal term

When to Use Location Boost

Perfect for These Situations
  • Multi-metro areas: You live between major cities (like DC/Baltimore, NYC/Philadelphia)
  • Broader coverage: You're willing to travel further for an earlier appointment
  • Competitive markets: High-demand areas where more options increase your chances
  • Flexible travel: You can easily reach appointments in different regions

May Not Be Necessary If

Consider Your Needs
  • You're focused on one specific location
  • You have limited travel flexibility
  • You're satisfied with appointments from your current 3 locations

Location Boost and Service Renewals

Automatic Extension

No Extra Cost

When you renew your service and have an active Location Boost:

  • Location Boost automatically extends to match your new service expiration date
  • No additional charge for this extension
  • Ensures continuous 6-location monitoring

Renewal Validation

  • You cannot renew your service if you have more than 3 locations without an active Location Boost
  • The system will prompt you to either remove locations or purchase Location Boost
  • This ensures your service continues uninterrupted

Managing Your Locations

With Location Boost Active

  • Add/remove locations freely up to your 6-location limit
  • Mix different services (Global Entry, NEXUS, etc.) across all 6 slots
  • Optimize your selections based on availability patterns

If Location Boost Expires

  • Your account reverts to the standard 3-location limit
  • You'll need to remove excess locations before adding new ones
