(Example: if you invite a friend who make a reservation of at least 50 euro, you both will receive 15 euro as reward. This means the total reward is 30 euro, the minimum reservation is 50 euro, so 30/50 = 60%) Or if the reward is 50 but the cheapest hotel on the website cost 300 a day then this means 50/300=16% so doesn't meet the criteria. (So check the cheapest accommodation available on the website) -If the reward is offered in percentage of discount on the reservation instead of a money credit, the total amount of discount received have to be more than 50% of the minimum reservation.
