Le Club Accorhotels Meeting Planner: use your Le Club Accorhotels points to finance your next events

Le Club Accorhotels Meeting Planner, an offer for business event organizers (corporate clients, events agencies, conference organizers, venue finders, etc.) has been enriched. Ever since March 1st, the points earned by the organizers of business events can be converted into e-vouchers allowing them to pay for 15% of the total cost of an event, or a maximum of €1,500.
For example, an event costing a total of €8,000 will give the client the possibility to use an e-voucher worth a
maximum of €1,200.
In order to be eligible for the Le Club Accorhotels Meeting Planner offer, the client simply has to be a member of the Le Club Accorhotels loyalty program, fill in a subscription form and then organize a business event for more than seven participants or requiring more than seven rooms. The Le Club Accorhotels Meeting Planner offer is available seven days a week, with no minimum spending required to earn points, in more than 2,000 participating ibis styles, adagio, Mercure, Novotel, MGallery, Pullman and Sofitel establishments. Validity of points is unlimited as long as the member organizes at least one event per year.
This offer increases the wide range of rewards offered by the Group's Le Club Accorhotels loyalty program. Meeting organizers will still be able to spend their points on stays, partner vouchers and air miles or to use them to support one of Accor's charitable programs: the Group's solidarity fund Solidarity Accor or the tree-planting program Plant for the Planet.
Le Club Accorhotels Meeting Planner meets the expectations of business customers seeking ever more innovative, intuitive and personalized offers. In this respect, the program is perfectly in line with Leading Digital Hospitality, the digital transformation plan launched last October, which notably aims at developping innovative digital solutions for corporate customers and including more BtoB services on the worldwide booking site accorhotels.com.
