We may have an issue of semantics regarding the travelzoo code. Often when Travelzoo has a special rate for a Hyatt Hotel that rate is also shown in the "Special Offers" section for the particular hotel on the Hyatt Website. The code for the comparable "Special Offer" is 13147 which is often referred to as the Travelzoo code. As this code is available on the website, it gets both stay credit and points. At least, this is my impression.

My experience
As a frequent (legit) user of corporate codes, here are some of my experiences:
1) Our company encourages the use of its corporate code for employee personal travel. I assume that is part of their deal with Hyatt, Hilton, Marriott, etc.
2) I've used our corporate code many times when travelling with my family including using it to book two rooms (so the kids had their own room). No issues. This includes Hyatts and Hiltons.
3) Within the U.S. and Canada at Hyatt, I've never been asked to provide corporate ID (although I have been asked who I work for). I have no idea what they would do if I couldn't correctly identify the company rate that I booked.
4) I have been asked for ID at Hilton. Particularly in Hawaii. I have also been asked for ID at Marriott. Again, since all stays were legit, I have no idea what they would do if I were unable to produce ID.

People going for job interviews, contractors, consultants and other parties retained by the company and such may not always have a company ID tied to the corporate rate used but are often explicitly covered by the corporate arrangement. Sometimes an overzealous front-desk staff member may ask for some more info but even in those rather uncommon circumstances the general outcome is the hotel just honors the rate anyway. Exceptions to that general outcome happen sometimes (i.e., the matter gets escalated enough to get one or both parties upset) but those are very rare.

Badges
On my recent stays at Hyatt and Sheraton, I was asked for my badge for this code. Seems like they are more restrictive this year than prior years. Luckily, I work for this company.
(Sheraton's code is not same a Hyatt)

It is easy to figure out. You just go into goldpassport.com and put the code into the Group/Corporate # field then "update rate". Look at the Rate Details and you see Li & Fung Trading Ltd.

I noticed at the Mission Bay Hyatt a few weeks back someone using a code for a certain large big 3-letter not red computer company. They were surprised to find out that the rate included breakfast. The nervous laughter and upper lip sweat were enough to almost make me want to ask the girl at the front desk to check his ID.
Dang FT'ers, they're EVERYWHERE!

chill
you guys should really chill out. the fact is that most companies wouldnt mind or care at all if you used their "corp code" in fact.. the more its used the more the corp can justify a larger discount with the hotel entitiy. (this is why you see the best rates with the largest companies). Now dont get me wrong.. b/c of written agreements they arent jst going to post their codes everywhere (because its stated in their agreements .. most of them anyway) that they wont disclose that info.. but they certainly dont mind..
I've been using corp rates for hotels for about a decade now. I've never been "checked" and would honestly LAUGH at the hotel clerk if he/she ever asked for any identification (other than drivers license and CCard). hotels in other countries have a different culture about the service business. thats why things may be different there.
