Corporate Discount

CD stands for Corporate Discount in the hospitality industry, referring to a special reduced rate offered by hotels to employees of registered businesses or organizations. These discounts are part of corporate travel agreements and are typically used for business trips, conferences, or extended stays. The CD rate may include added perks such as free breakfast, flexible cancellation, or late check-out.

Hotels use Corporate Discounts to build long-term relationships with companies, attract frequent travelers, and fill rooms during weekdays. Guests usually access CD rates by entering a CD code when booking online or by presenting valid company identification at check-in.

Hotel
Cash Deposit

CD stands for Cash Deposit in the hotel industry, referring to a security amount paid in cash by a guest at check-in to cover potential incidental charges or damages during their stay. This is especially common when guests do not provide a credit card. The Cash Deposit ensures the hotel is protected against unpaid minibar usage, room service, property damage, or extended stays.

Upon check-out, if no extra charges are incurred, the full CD is typically refunded to the guest. Policies regarding the amount and refund process may vary by hotel and location.
