Great Hilton for Business offer – 5,000 bonus points PER STAY, up to 15,000 points

Hilton has launched a generous promotion for anyone who is a member of the ‘Hilton for Business’ scheme.

You will earn 5,000 bonus Hilton Honors points on your next three stays booked at a ‘Hilton for Business’ rate.

Since the ‘Hilton for Business’ rate is usually 2% cheaper than standard flex, semi-flex and non-refundable rates, it’s an easy offer to take up. Click here to register.

How does the offer work?

It’s simple enough, as long as you are in ‘Hilton for Business’ (which I will cover again below):

• register for the promotion here (you need to register before your stay but existing bookings appear to be OK)

• complete a stay (no minimum length) booked at one of the ‘Hilton for Business’ cash rates by 27th August

• receive 5,000 bonus Hilton Honors points ‘6-8 weeks’ after your stay

• repeat up to three times, for a maximum bonus of 15,000 Hilton Honors points

• this bonus is on top of the current Hilton Honors promotion, worth 1,000 bonus points per stay

For clarity, the 15,000 points cap is per personal Hilton Honors account. Multiple employees linked to the same company account can each earn 15,000 bonus points.

How does ‘Hilton for Business’ work?

Here’s a reminder of how it works. There is a 7,500 Hilton Honors points bonus for the account head after the first stay which should stack with this promotion.

You can learn more about ‘Hilton for Business’, and sign up, here.

This is what you need to know:

• when you sign up your small business, you are asked for your existing Hilton Honors account details. Your ‘Hilton for Business’ account is linked to this.

• the only requirement for joining is that you have a business email address which you must verify by clicking a link in a test email sent to you. There is no requirement to provide a company registration or VAT number. You MUST have a unique email suffix (eg ‘headforpoints.com’ in our case). It is NOT essential that the address on the Hilton Honors account has this suffix.

• once you have signed up, you receive a link to send to co-workers. By clicking the link, they can join your ‘Hilton for Business’ account and link it to their existing Hilton Honors account. Until 28th June, if you register here, the account head will receive 2,000 bonus points for every co-worker who joins – no stay required – up to 10,000 points.

That’s it!

Going forward, when you or your co-workers log in to the Hilton website, they will be given the choice of whether they want to see ‘Hilton for Business’ rates as well as standard rates.

This is what you see on hilton.com:

The guest receives their Hilton Honors points (including the 5,000 bonus points under this offer) and elite night credit as usual. This is important – the person who stays is not in any way worse off by using ‘Hilton for Business’.

On top of this, additional points are accumulated in the ‘Hilton for Business’ acccount:

• 7,500 Hilton Honors points (worth £25 on our valuation) are earned after the first stay is made under the ‘Hilton for Business’ rate (first stay per account, not per person on the account)

• 5,000 Hilton Honors points (worth £17 on our valuation) are earned for every 10 nights booked in aggregate by employees using the ‘Hilton for Business’ rate

The person who set up the ‘Hilton for Business’ account decides what to do with these points. You can transfer them to your own Hilton Honors account or you can transfer them to one of your registered employees.

Conclusion

If you are part of a ‘Hilton for Business’ account, this is an easy 15,000 bonus Hilton Honors points if you can complete three stays over the next three months.
