Hilton Launches Travel Program for Small Businesses
Hilton today debuted “Hilton for Business”, a new, digital-forward travel program that empowers professionals running small- and medium-sized businesses to simplify travel management while enhancing rewards and discounts for their loyalty.
The global program 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.
According to Hilton, the new travel platform “answers a growing need”. Hilton data uncovered 75 percent 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 spotlighted that 80 percent of global travelers agree that it’s important to be able to book their entire trip online.
According to Chris Silcock, president, Global Brands and Commercial Services, Hilton, small- and medium-sized business customers have been looking for a travel platform – and loyalty benefits – that meets their unique set of needs and reduces friction points, from booking to billing.
“We’re thrilled to officially launch ‘Hilton for Business’ as our strategic solution to enrich the business travel experience for these customers and their employees,” Silcock said.
According to Hilton, small- and medium-sized businesses will now be able to discover a more seamless and value-driven business travel experience by engaging with Hilton for Business through its portfolio-wide discounts.
Small- and medium-sized businesses that join “Hilton for Business” gain access to discounted rates across Hilton’s global portfolio of nearly 7,400 properties both on the website and on the Hilton Honors app.
Moreover, companies will earn milestone bonuses through Hilton’s award-winning loyalty program, Hilton Honors.
