Name Your Own Price rebate is 2%, Retail purchases are 3%.
Expect the rebate to show up in your account up to 6 weeks after a stay has been completed. Your transaction shows up in reports once Priceline gets its share of the money from the hotel.
If you’re tired of paying overflated prices for hotel rooms, the best thing to do is name your own price. And that’s exactly what you can do on Priceline.com. This commercial travel website allows Canadian shoppers to earn tremendous savings when making hotel reservations as it lets you bid on the rooms available. If you don’t have the time to bid however, you can also get great deals on hotels by booking your room directly online at discounted prices.
Priceline, which was launched in 1998 and is located in Norwalk, Connecticut, also lets shoppers save money when purchasing airline tickets, vacation packages, cruises, last minute deals, and car rentals. The company also offers a personal finance service that deals with home mortgages, refinancing and home equity loans through an independent licensee.
If you’d like to bid on a hotel room, you choose the city, area, and class of hotel you’d like to stay in. You then type in a dollar amount that you’re willing to pay for each night’s stay. You will get an instant answer from Priceline.com, letting you know if the bid has been accepted or rejected. If the bid is accepted, you will receive the hotel name and address along with a confirmation number and hotel details. If the bid was rejected, you can bid again instantly on a hotel in a different part of the city or a different class of hotel. However, if you want to bid again on the same hotel class and area, you have to wait 24 hours before you can try again.
The exact name of the hotel isn’t revealed until the bid is accepted and you cannot change or cancel the reservations. However, if you’d like to know exactly where you’re staying or have a specific hotel in mind, you can check the company’s database of hotels and get great deals by shopping online and booking your hotel directly through the Priceline website.
The next time you’re heading out of town for business or pleasure and don’t want to pay an arm and a leg for a hotel room, be sure to visit Great Canadian Rebates before booking to receive online cash back rebates with priceline.com.
