Shopback Plus users get 13% cashback, 12% Cashback for Hotels for regular users.
As always, check prices via booking directly at the hotel you want to stay before booking via Booking.com with the cashback enabled.
In some circumstances, it may be cheaper to book & pay directly with the business and forgo the 13% Cashback.
From my experience though in booking 2/3 star hotels in Singapore and Japan, I didn't see any price increases with the cashback activated, but your mileage will vary depending on the brand of the accommodation.
The usual terms are as follows:

- Flights and Packages (unless otherwise stated)
