"I work for BofA and the internal discounts website didn't list codes, instead directing employees to contact individual properties. I later confirmed the code is 109568. Unless you're employed by one of those companies, I would avoid using these codes. They do often ask for ID at InterContinental properties, though Holiday Inn locations rarely enforce."

"Kraft's IHG code (105406) is a food and beverage corporate code. Kraft Heinz (as it's now known) HQ is in Chicago IL and Pittsburgh PA. IHG enforcement: Holiday Inn Express essentially never checks food company codes; Crowne Plaza occasionally. No Kraft+IHG specific verification incident documented. Consumer packaged goods codes at IHG follow the same pattern as McDonald's and Coca-Cola: low scrutiny due to ambiguous franchise/supplier affiliation."

"FlyerTalk's dedicated thread "AAA card – Do hotels check?" documents: "One frequent traveler staying 1-3 hotels per week was asked for the AAA card at about 10-15% of hotels." Another reported being asked only twice in 70-80 stays. The IHG/AAA discount is officially listed on IHG's website as a membership benefit — unlike corporate codes, this is a publicly advertised member rate. AAA rates are typically only 5-15% off, reducing hotels' incentive to verify."
