Lift Passes, Activities and Insurance are only valid for all or part of the winter season for which they have been ordered.
Unless otherwise stated, Lift Passes valid for more than one day are valid for consecutive days.

Insurance may be taken out when ordering a Lift Pass or certain Activities. If the Insurance is taken out at a Point of Sale, it may be taken out at the same time as the purchase of a Lift Pass or an Activity Pass; it may also be taken out at any time during the period of validity of the Lift Pass or Activity Pass. If the insurance is taken out during the period of validity of the Lift Pass or Activity Pass, the insurance cover only takes effect from the date of purchase and is not retroactive. If the Insurance is taken out on an Internet Site or at an Automatic Terminal, it can only be taken out at the time of purchase of a Lift Pass or an Activity Pass for an Activity.

ARTICLE 3 : Point of sale

Lift Passes can be purchased at the Points of Sale and, for a selection of them, on the Websites, on the Application and on the Automatic Terminals.

Activities can be ordered via the following channels:

Insurance policies can be taken out at the Points of Sale, on the Websites, on the Application or on the Automatic Terminals.

Certain offers may be presented exclusively at Points of Sale, on Websites or on Automatic Terminals or any of these.

ARTICLE 4 : Booking

With the exception of recharging as provided for in article 10 and the two exceptions set out below, the Client may finalise the order for the purchase of a Lift Pass on the Web Site https://www.skipass-lesmenuires.com, on the Application and on the Automatic Terminals up to and including the day on which the Lift Pass is to be valid.
Notwithstanding the above the order (i) of a Lift Pass purchased as part of the ‘Samedi je skie’ (“Saturday I ski”) offer must be finalised no later than 11:59 pm on the day before the validity of the Lift Pass begins; (ii) the order of a Lift Pass for the season on the https://saison.skipass-lesmenuires.com website must be completed up to two days before the start of validity of the Lift Pass.

The Client may finalise the order of an Activity on the Website or on the Application up until the day on which the Activity begins. As an exception to the above, the ‘First Track’ Activity, the order must be finalised no later than 2 p.m. on the day before the Activity.

The order is finalised once the order confirmation message has been received.

However, if the Client chooses to receive by post the smart card on which the Lift Pass or Activity Pass is encoded, the order must be confirmed and paid for in full at least ten working days before the start of validity of the Lift Pass or Activity Pass if it is to be sent within Metropolitan France or Corsica, and at least fifteen working days before the start of validity of the Lift Pass if sent to another location. Failing this, the order cannot be finalised.

When placing an order on the Website, the Client:

Selects the Lift Pass(es), Activity(ies) and/or Insurance(ies) they wish to order;

If an order placed on the Website is not finalised within thirty minutes of the product offer being displayed, the products selected are automatically removed from the Client's basket. However, the products continue to appear in the basket, even though they have been deleted, as long as the page of the Website on which the Client is located has not been refreshed. Sevabel therefore does not guarantee the availability or the price of the products appearing in the basket beyond the period mentioned above.

The purchase is concluded subject to payment, at the time the order is placed; (i) of either the full price or, (ii) if the Client has opted for payment in instalments, of the first instalment. In addition, if a Lift Pass or Activity Pass offer is valid until a specific date and time, the purchase is concluded subject to payment being finalised by that date and time at the latest.

Once the order has been paid for, the Client will receive an email confirming the order.

ARTICLE 5 : Photographs used on the lift passes

ARTICLE 6 : Prices

The price list for Lift Passes, Activities and Insurance is available at Points of Sale, on the Website and at Automatic Terminals for Lift Passes, Activities and Insurance sold through these channels.

Prices are expressed in euros and include all taxes. They are subject to change during the season.

The price of an Activity includes the price of the Lift Pass and the hire of any equipment required to take part in the Activity. As an exception to the above, the price of the ‘First Track’ Activity does not include the price of the Lift Pass required for this Activity. The Client must therefore ensure that the participant in the Activity has this Lift Pass and, if necessary, purchase this Lift Pass in addition to ordering the Activity.

Sevabel may only offer Lift Passes or Activity Access Passes at a discounted rate or free of charge at Points of Sale. This is particularly the case for Lift Passes for people with disabilities.

Sevabel may also offer certain Lift Passes or Activity Tickets at a discounted rate exclusively on the Website or exclusively at Automatic Terminals.

Unless otherwise indicated, any price reduction is applied on the basis of the ‘single adult’ or ‘individual adult’ fare.
A price reduction cannot be combined with any other price reduction.

If the Client wishes to benefit from a reduced fare or free travel, he/she must present, when ordering the Lift Pass, Activity Pass or Insurance at a Point of Sale, an original document certifying that the user of the Lift Pass, the person registered for the Activity or the beneficiary of the Insurance meets the conditions for benefiting from this reduced fare or free travel on the date on which the Lift Pass comes into force, on the date on which the Activity begins or on the date on which the Insurance takes effect. By way of exception, if a Lift Pass is purchased that is valid every day during the winter season, the date taken into account to determine whether the user is entitled to a reduced fare or free travel is:

The user, registered person or beneficiary must be able to present the document at any time during the period of validity of the Lift Pass, Activity or Insurance, whether the Lift Pass, Activity or Insurance was ordered at a Point of Sale, on the Websites or at Automatic Terminals.

No price reduction or free travel will be granted once a Lift Pass, Activity or Insurance has been ordered.

ARTICLE 7 : Payment

If the Client chooses to pay in three instalments, a sum equal to one third of the price of the order and the total amount of the charges will be debited from their bank card at the time the order is placed. The second instalment of one third of the price of the order is taken one month later from the same bank card. The balance will be debited one month after the second debit.

To benefit from payment in several instalments, the Client must choose the corresponding option during the order process and accept Alma's general terms and conditions of service. Payment is made via the secure Alma platform.

ARTICLE 8 : Proof of purchase

A proof of purchase (hereinafter the ‘Proof of Purchase’) is sent to the Client by e-mail when a Lift Pass or Activity Pass has been ordered. In the event of a purchase on the Website or at an Automatic Terminal, the Proof of Purchase is the order confirmation email. In the event of a purchase at a Point of Sale, the Client may refuse to have the Proof of Sale sent by e-mail. A printed Proof of Purchase will then be issued.

The Client is asked to keep this Proof of Purchase for as long as the Lift Pass or Activity Pass is valid. This Proof of Purchase will be required in order to make a claim for compensation.

ARTICLE 9 : Issue of lift passes and activity passes

Each Lift Pass and Activity Pass is issued in the form of a smart card on which it is encoded.

This card is provided free of charge.

The card (which may or may not be named) can be reused. It can therefore be recharged as described in article 10.
If the Client has purchased a Lift Pass or an Access Pass for an Activity (with the exception of the ‘First Track’ Activity) at a Point of Sale, the card is issued to him/her immediately at the Point of Sale.

In the event of a purchase paid for by bank card, on the Website, on the Application, at a Point of Sale or at an Automatic Terminal, the amount corresponding to the price of the Lift Pass or Activity cancelled will be credited to the bank card used to pay for the Lift Pass or Activity. If the purchase was paid for by means other than a bank card, the sum will be transferred to the bank account details provided. As the refund is based on the price of the order in euros, any exchange rate variations between the date of the order and the date of the refund will be borne by the Client. The cost of any insurance attached to the Lift Pass or Activity will not be reimbursed.

If the order was paid for partly by printed or digital holiday vouchers and partly by bank card, the amount refunded cannot exceed the amount paid by bank card.

ARTICLE 13 : Compensation

The Client, the user of a Lift Pass or the person taking part in an Activity may not benefit from a total or partial refund or exchange of this Lift Pass, Activity or Insurance, or the extension or deferment of their validity, even if the Lift Pass has not been used or has only been partially used, if the person has not taken part in the Activity or has only partially taken part in it, or if the beneficiary of the Insurance has not used it.
