JTB coupons work differently from Jalan and Rakuten: you enter a code and a password. Here is how, step by step.

JTB is Japan's largest travel agency, and its website hands out hotel coupons all year, including regional discounts of up to 50%. Unlike Jalan and Rakuten, you don't tap to claim. You type in a coupon code and a password when you book.

Step by step

1. Make a free account. Sign up as a JTB Travel Member (JTBトラベルメンバー). Most coupons are for web bookings only.
2. Pick a coupon on JTB's web coupon list. They are grouped by type: first-time member coupons, hotel chain coupons, and regional coupons from Hokkaido to Okinawa.
3. Note the code and password. Each coupon shows a クーポンコード (coupon code) and a パスワード (password). Some coupons have several codes for different discount levels or dates.
4. Book a stay that fits the coupon, then enter the code and password during booking. Check that the discount shows before you pay.

Check these 5 things first

• Two date ranges. 予約対象期間 is the last day you can book. 宿泊対象期間 is when you must stay.
• Minimum price. For example, ¥1,000 off a booking of ¥20,000 or more.
• Number of travelers. The discount often goes up with more people.
• Limited quantity. Many coupons are first come, first served.
• A cap. Percentage discounts have a maximum (最大 or 上限), such as 50% off up to ¥7,000 per person per night.

Where JTB shines

Regional travel discounts. Prefectures often run their campaigns through JTB, like the current 50% off Iwate hotels. If you are heading somewhere beyond Tokyo and Kyoto, check JTB's list for that region before you book anywhere else.

Coupon details change often. Always read the conditions on each coupon.
