Promotion Eligibility and Important Notes

• Promotions apply only to bookings made through the credit card campaign’s redirect links on Agoda’s website, app, or mobile site. Payment must use the corresponding eligible credit card to activate the discount.
• The discount shows on the payment page after entering valid card details. It appears only on the booking form of the promotion landing page once a valid credit card number is input.
• Offers are valid for “Pre paid,” “Pay now,” and “Book Now, Pay later” room types only. Rooms marked “Pay at the Hotel” do not qualify.
• The discount applies to accommodation room charges only, excluding local taxes, service fees, extra charges, personal expenses, and similar items.
• Large international hotel chains, such as Hilton, Marriott, and IHG, typically do not participate.
• No registration is required, and there is no minimum number of nights for eligibility.

How to Find Eligible Hotels

When searching on Agoda’s promotion pages, look for hotels marked with a specific tag or indicator that confirms they qualify for the discount. For example, a label such as “Visa_SG applied” appears next to the property in the results list. As shown in the screenshot below, this marker helps identify options where the offer applies.

Once selected, proceed to the payment page, enter your card details, and the discount will calculate automatically in the total. If the reduction does not show, the hotel may not participate—switch to another marked one.

These promotions do not cover most international hotel chains. For chain bookings, consider using cashback portals like TopCashback to access the official site, such as Hilton, Marriott, and IHG, where you can earn typically 4% to 12% cashback on completed stays, depending on the brand and terms.

Conclusion

Securing 5% to 20% off on hotel stays throughout the year offers a reliable way to reduce costs. Check these promotions first when reserving a non-chain property. The immediate application of the discount simplifies the process, eliminating the need to wait for rebates or confirm a hotel’s qualification.
