What are the payment methods for hotel guaranteed reservation?

1- Pay at the store: Pay at the store, also called cash payment, that is, on-site payment: Pay to the hotel on the spot after arriving at the store. Generally, this room type can be cancelled at any time, as long as it is before the latest opening time in your order (even if it is late, it can be cancelled without deducting money, but it will affect your credit). This kind of risk to the guests is minimal. Moreover, for the hotel, once the last time you write has passed, the room will not be reserved. 2- Prepayment: Pay directly on the page when booking. This kind of order is the most risky for guests, because it is usually irrevocable. If your itinerary changes, you won't get a refund. The advantage is that the store will guarantee to keep the room until the final check-out time, and you can check in at any time. Also, prepaid is sometimes a little cheaper than cash. In addition, Ctrip provides a hotel insurance. In case you don't go to the store after insurance, the insurance company can compensate for the loss of room rate. 3- guarantee: between the above two, you must pay a certain guarantee first, and then you can cancel the contract before the limited time, just like you pay it now. After the expiration, you can't cancel the contract (some guarantees can't cancel the contract). The so-called deposit means that a part of the deposit should be paid in advance on the website when booking. This is mainly used in the case of "very tight housing in peak season", or when the latest opening time filled in the guest order is too late. The hotel will restrict those who arrive too late (the hotel is worried that the guests will write too late, but if they don't come, the hotel will leave the room for nothing, causing unnecessary losses) and may ask the guests for a guarantee. This is a constraint and guarantee for both sides. After paying the deposit, if you actually check in, the deposit will be returned (Ctrip will return it according to the original payment channel). If you don't check in, you must inform Ctrip to cancel the order at the specified time, otherwise the order can't be cancelled if the notice is late, and the deposit will not be refunded.
