UnionPay credit cards issued in South Korea or SplendorPlus cards enjoy 15% off (up to 400 RMB), while other overseas-issued UnionPay credit cards receive 10% off (up to 200 RMB). Bookings must be made via the official IHG website or IHG One Rewards app, with UnionPay selected at checkout.
UnionPay is widely accepted across China, with real-time currency conversion, QR code payments, and the option to link cards to Alipay or WeChat Pay. The SplendorPlus card, launched last year, also offers travel perks, cultural experiences, and 1% cashback for international visitors.
