Corporate ID - Creating, Attaching and Booking

📆 Revision Date:

Please note: The following feature is driven by permission and can be utilized by properties that have GDS capabilities.

A corporate ID is a dedicated number specifically for a business that can be used for tracking purposes. The corporate ID is specific to the company and can be used for locally negotiated business or national accounts and can be used in multiple ways-

  • The corporate ID and code is attached to the rate plan, which allows it to display the associated rates for that company

  • There can be multiple corporate IDs associated with one rate plan, or you can allocate one corporate ID across multiple rate plans for different pricing

  • The guest will utilize this corporate ID to book via website or GDS in order to get their associated discount
