IHG credit card

I wonder if you card friends have heard of IHG credit card? IHG Credit Card is short for Credit Card. It has some unique uses. The following are the advantages and disadvantages of the IHG credit card that I summarized:

Original value of 2.2. IHGPoints is about 0.7 cents/point (hotel points valuation). However, booking IHG hotel with this card will return 10% points, that is, the actual value of points is 0.78 cents/point. Points required for redeeming hotels at all levels: IHG Award Redemption Form. Therefore, the maximum card opening reward value of 100k+5k is about $8 19!

2. It should be noted that FreeNight cannot be accumulated, and the validity period is only one year.

This is what I know about IHG credit card information. Every credit card has its own advantages and disadvantages. I hope all card friends can find the credit card that suits them best.

When booking a hotel, you must show your credit card?

Answers to supplementary questions:

It depends on which third-party website you booked the Hong Kong hotel. Different websites have different results. If the room rate has been deducted from the card, there is no need to bring the card; If you only pre-authorize, you must bring your card to complete the pre-authorization; If you only use a card as a guarantee when booking a room, you can use any card to swipe the room rate or pay cash after you go.

-I just went to Hong Kong last week, and I also booked a Hong Kong hotel through a third-party website, and booked it from two websites (each hotel stays 1 night). What I encountered was that a website directly deducted the room rate from my card. After I went, I only paid the deposit for the room rate in cash, and they didn't need me to provide a credit card for the reservation. The other website only made "pre-authorization". Before leaving the hotel, you need to provide the credit card at the time of reservation, and the hotel needs pre-authorization to complete the operation. In this case, a card is needed.

So my suggestion is to check the reservation information fed back to you by the third-party website and see what it says, whether it has been deducted or not. As far as I know, HotelTravel.com directly deducted the room rate; If you make a reservation in booking.com, you only need pre-authorization, and you need to swipe your card when you arrive at the hotel, while Ctrip only uses a credit card as a guarantee, and you can use any credit card to pay the room rate when you arrive at the Hongkong hotel. However, there are so many booking websites now, and each website is different. Let me take this as an example. For details, please study the reservation information fed back to you by the website.

Intercontinental Hotels Group wants to introduce credit card information, so I'll stop here.
