Automated IHG Cancellation Deadline Alerts

Every morning, WebRun signs into IHG, lists every reservation you hold with its hotel, confirmation number, check in date, and room rate, reads the cancellation policy on each booking to find the last free cancellation date, keeps a Trello card per stay, and WhatsApps you the deadlines landing soon.

In short

How do I track free cancellation deadlines on my hotel bookings?

Every morning, WebRun signs into IHG, reads every reservation you hold with its check in date, room rate, and cancellation policy, and works out the last day each can still be cancelled free. It keeps a Trello card per stay and WhatsApps you any deadline landing in the next few days.

  • Held rooms never quietly turn into a charge nobody meant to take
  • Every booking carries its cancellation deadline as a due date
  • Non-refundable rates are flagged so nobody waits on a window that does not exist

Built for frequent business travelers · executive assistants · travel coordinators · small teams booking their own trips

Questions, answered

Will it cancel a booking for me?

No. WebRun only reads your reservations and reports the deadline. Cancelling, changing, or confirming a stay stays with you, so a room is never released or charged without your decision.

What about non-refundable rates?

They are listed separately and flagged as non-refundable, so nobody sits waiting for a free cancellation window that was never there. The card still tracks the stay and the amount committed.

How far ahead does it warn me?

As far ahead as you choose. Set a warning window, for example three days, and the WhatsApp message names only the bookings whose free cancellation date falls inside it.

Put this on autopilot.
