## What is a non-refundable option?

A non-refundable option is a discount you can offer on top of other discounts and cancellation policies that gives you greater protection against cancellations.

**How they work**

- You set your discount, which is typically 10% off the base price in everywhere but China
- Your discounted rate appears in search
- At checkout, guests either select your standard rate—subject to your cancellation policy—or the discounted, non-refundable rate
- If they cancel, you keep your entire payout for all nights booked, minus the cleaning fee if they cancel before check-in
- A reservation would be eligible if the check-out date is within 60 days
- The discount is applicable if the reservation is not booked with a pre-approval or special offer
