As part of a heavily-marketed campaign, online travel giant booking.com is currently offering a 10% free credit on accommodation bookings. In short, whatever you spend on accommodation with booking.com, you’ll receive 10% back into your booking.com account (less fees and any city tax).

Booking.com free credit – the details

To benefit, you need to book using the booking.com app before 1 July 2021, for stays with check-in no later than 31 December 2021. The credit will be paid into your account after your stay.

The maximum value of the credit is £200. 

Full details of the offer, including terms and conditions, are available here. Note the reference to “select” properties for redemption – while I’d imagine there will be a decent choice, don’t expect the travel credit to apply to hotels sitewide.

Don’t stop there, however

In addition to the above credit, you can get an additional 7% cashback on your booking.com spend via Quidco.

The cashback will apply to your full spend, it won’t be reduced by the 10% credit earned. You can access Quidco on your mobile, so the fact that the booking.com booking needs to be via the app does not rule out cashback here.

Bear in mind too that the Quidco 7% cashback is paid as cash into your Quidco account, it’s not credit or similar. As such, a £100 accommodation spend on booking.com will get you £10 in future accommodation credit from booking.com, plus £7 in cash from Quidco.

This is a really good opportunity to stack two deals to get a very solid reduction on a booking.com booking. Just make sure you activate in the app, book via the app and do so before 1 July.
