Loupit Cashback
Corporate travel cashback: credits for every smart booking decision
When eligible under your company travel program, bookings earn cashback credits. The rules are configurable: follow the policy, book in advance, choose economy when policy allows business, or book a hotel. The credit always goes to the traveler.
- Your rules
- the company defines what earns credit and how much
- Always the traveler
- the credit goes entirely to whoever travels
- Eligibility
- applies to eligible bookings inside the travel program
How Loupit cashback works
Cashback is an incentive layer inside the travel program: the company sets the rules, the platform measures booking behavior and credits the traveler automatically.
- 1
The company sets the rules
Which behaviors earn credit and the percentage or fixed amount per rule. The beneficiary is always the traveler.
- 2
The booking is evaluated
At booking, Loupit checks policy, advance purchase, cabin, supplier and accommodation to decide eligibility.
- 3
The credit is calculated
Every rule met earns credit, recording which rule was fulfilled and the corresponding amount.
- 4
The balance is visible
The traveler follows the balance per trip and per rule, with an audit trail.
The hotel cashback rule
The rule is simple and applies to hotel bookings made on Loupit: inside the travel policy the traveler earns 2% cashback; out of policy, 1%. Cashback is calculated on the nightly room rate only, excluding taxes and fees.
Hotel out of policy: 1% cashback
If the hotel booking falls out of policy, the traveler still earns 1% credit on the nightly room rate — half the in-policy benefit.
Always on the nightly room rate
The calculation uses the room rate only. Taxes, fees, service charges and hotel extras are not part of the cashback base.
Credit visible in the quote
On every compared hotel option, the traveler sees the nightly rate and the cashback amount before choosing.
