Document background
An Authorization Letter To Use Credit Card For Hotel Booking is a crucial document in the Canadian hospitality industry that establishes a formal arrangement between a credit card holder and a hotel. This document becomes necessary when someone needs to pay for a hotel stay using their credit card but won't be physically present during the check-in or stay, or when authorizing a third party to stay at a hotel using the cardholder's credit card. The letter must comply with various Canadian regulations, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), provincial consumer protection laws, and credit card processing regulations. It typically includes comprehensive details about the credit card holder, the authorized guest(s), booking specifics, transaction limits, and the authorization period. This document is particularly common in business travel, family bookings, or group reservations where the person paying is different from the guest staying at the hotel.
