Hilton has launched Hilton for Business, a “digital-forward” travel program that, according to an announcement, empowers professionals running small- and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) to simplify travel management while enhancing rewards and discounts for their loyalty.
The global program, according to the announcement, offers a comprehensive set of tools to enhance the business travel booking and management experience and provide Hilton Honors benefits to business customers and their employees around the world.
Hilton research, according to the announcement, showed that 75% of small- and medium-sized business customers book their own business trips and manage their own travel in-house, without outsourcing. And Hilton’s 2024 Trends Report said that 80% of global travelers agree that it’s important to be able to book their entire trip online.
Small- and medium-sized businesses can work with Hilton for Business in the following ways:
Portfolio-wide discounts: SMEs that join Hilton for Business gain access to discounted rates across the hotel company’s global portfolio of nearly 7,400 properties both on the website and on the Hilton Honors app.
Travel rewards for small businesses and their employees: Companies that enroll will receive 7,500 Hilton Honors Bonus Points after any program member completes their first hotel stay. After every 10 nights stayed by a program member, the company receives 5,000 Hilton Honors Bonus Points.
Rapid onboarding: When visiting Hilton.com/HiltonforBusiness, business owners or travel administrators can register themselves and their companies through their own Hilton Honors account.
