Phocuswright is the travel industry’s leading innovation and
investor conference that hosted more than 1,600 senior level
attendees at the JW Marriott at L.A. Live this year. WorldVentures
was one of only 14 companies selected to present an innovative new
product or service in the travel technology space. Mike Remedios,
Chief Technology Offer for WorldVentures, demonstrated the flye
smart card in the Launch category.
Using miniaturized wireless computer technology, the flye smart
card replaces the user’s entire wallet by storing multiple payment
cards in one small, secure and familiar device. Eventually,
customers will be able to use the smart card globally, with
confidence.
The flye smart card, customized by Nxt-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ:NXTD)
exclusively for WorldVentures’ DreamTrips Members, currently
numbered at more than 500,000 worldwide and growing, is intended to
allow Members to:
- Load up to 10 records (credit cards, loyalty cards, identity
cards, and other data); additional records can be easily swapped in
and out from WorldVentures' DreamTrips mobile app.
- Use as a payment method in the same way as a credit card, where
accepted.
- Earn reward points at select restaurants worldwide that can be
used towards DreamTrips vacations.
- Engage and interact socially with other DreamTrips Members
worldwide through its communication features.
- Be privately announced upon arrival at participating hotels,
restaurants and venues for a true personalized VIP experience.
“The flye smart card removes the ‘friction’ of travel, loyalty
and payments,” Remedios says. “It allows merchants to elevate
customers’ travel experiences with enhanced convenience and
security. And, with the latest in location-aware loyalty and
payment technology, the flye smart card will continue to get
smarter and more useful as features are added.”
WorldVentures also sponsored a booth at the conference where
staff answered questions on how the flye smart card provides
powerful solutions for boosting brand loyalty in the travel
industry.
