FAQs | Premier Inn Business Account

A Premier Inn Business Account helps manage expenses and payments for stays at over 800 of our hotels across the UK. 

Applying for a Business Account is free and gives your company access to interest-free credit for up to six weeks.*

With a Business Account, you can add purchase order numbers and your own customer reference (e.g. a cost centre or department name) for easy review in a consolidated VAT invoice.

You can have unlimited employees connected to your Business Account, so employees will never need to pay out of their own pockets. Everything you need to know about your hotel spend is in one place, and you can easily set employee allowances and pre-authorise stays.

Under the Business Account tab at the top of the page you’ll see two new options:

1. About Business Account

2. Account dashboard

‘About Business Account’ will take you to a page that outlines the benefits of a Business Account and how it can help your business. You can also link additional Business Accounts to Business Booker from this page (following this guide).

However, please note that any changes made in either Business Booker or Business Account after linking (for example updating the memorable word, changing contact details, adding and storing card details etc) will not be automatically updated on both accounts. You’ll still need to update the relevant information on both accounts manually.

For security reasons, cards need to be registered before they can be activated and used. To register a card, enter the unique registration code you received with the card.

You can also register your card via Business Booker, which will link your accounts together automatically. Once linked you’ll have a single login via Business Booker to check your balance and manage your account.

Once your card is registered and activated, you'll be able to pre-authorise accommodation, meals and extras, as well as manage your account (or card if, you’re a cardholder) online. If you don’t have a unique registration code or you have any other problems registering and activating a card, please contact the Business Account Support Team on 0333 005 0504 or email premierinn.businessaccount@worldline.com

Invoices are created at the beginning of every month and show transactions from the previous month. Payment will be taken by direct debit around 14 days later. You can view invoices from the last 36 months by logging in to your account and clicking “manage my account”.

If you’ve opted for twice monthly invoicing, you’ll also receive an invoice on the 15th of the month. Payment will then be taken by direct debit around 14 days later.

Invoices include transaction dates and times, which hotels were booked, the card number used when booking and what payments were made using the card. Guest names, purchase order numbers and your own customer references will also appear on invoices if the information is added when booking.

Invoices show the total amount spent with a comprehensive VAT breakdown and can be accessed or downloaded any time by logging in to your account and clicking “manage my account”.

When making your booking, you can enter a purchase order number and your own customer reference. Customer references can be used to refer to a cost centre number, booking reference etc. The name of the guest staying at the hotel will appear automatically on the invoice.

Transactions will be grouped together and a subtotal for each individual card will be given, so it may save time to set up one card per cost centre or department if you’re managing your account centrally. To analyse this information in more detail, you can set up your own personalised management information reports online.
