About loyalty callouts

Loyalty callouts promote available benefits for users who are members of your loyalty program. You can set up an audience list in Google Ads that represents members of your loyalty program, so the messages will only be served to members.

Loyalty callouts are available for 2 use cases, either alone or in combination:

  1. Program members have points they can use toward a booking.
  2. Program members are entitled to a discounted rate because of their membership in the program (aka “private rates”).
Note: The loyalty callouts program related to points is currently available only in the US. The ability to offer discounted rates (“private rates”) to program members is a globally-available feature.

Here are some of the benefits of adding loyalty callouts to your hotel listings:

Best practices

Loyalty callouts in your Hotel ads should follow all ad editorial policies (for example, no odd punctuation), along with the following best practices:

  • Concise messaging: Use short, yet detailed callouts regarding your loyalty program. We recommend a limit of 53 characters for the booking module and 60 characters for the search knowledge panel, based on a 320px-width mobile screen.
