Hi,
Can I purchase a getaway for myself and others to share the same place and use their credit card to pay for it? I would like to book it with my platinum discount but we will be splitting it and they want to put it on their card. Is this ok?

Have done it before online and over the phone. Also did the same with an AC yesterday. If you have a friend using a getaway this is the preferred way to do it so it doesn't appear like a rental where you are paying and they are paying you back.
