Pittsburgh, PA – January 27, 2012 – DoubleTree by Hilton Pittsburgh-Green Tree, the newest and largest Pittsburgh-area Hilton Worldwide hotel is now offering Hilton HHonor Points for guests using Topguest, a check-in loyalty service utilizing geolocation technology. The Topguest Program is very user-friendly and makes earning points fun and easy. While traveling, users check in with their existing services, such as Foursquare, Twitter, Facebook Places and Gowalla–in order to earn the benefits such as Hilton HHonors points.

Hilton’s new social loyalty program, powered by Topguest, will soon be available at www.topguest.com. Members will receive 2,500 points simply for connecting their Facebook account, and will have the opportunity to earn even more points for further engagement with the brand. As a part of this effort, guests will receive travel reward points for “liking” a Topguest partner on Facebook, and sharing content related to the partner with their social networking friends, like tweets, Facebook posts, Foursquare check-ins, etc. For the Topguest partner, the service lets them personalize and narrowly target their offers to each person individually, instead of blasting out millions of emails to all their members at once.
