Zonetail Announces the U.S. launch of its Hotel Mobile Platform in Partnership with AAHOA
05 December 2018 - 11:00PM
Zonetail Inc. (TSXV: ZONE) (“Zonetail” or the “Company”) is pleased
to announce the launch of its anchored local, mobile app in Tampa
Bay, Florida in concert with Zonetail’s partner, AAHOA, the largest
association of hotel owners in the world.
The Zonetail platform connects hotel guests to
the amenities and services of their hotel through the convenience
of their own mobile device and offers hotels new service options to
increase revenues and customer engagement. Guests can select their
hotel destination and the app will “reskin” (tailor the content) to
provide information and connectivity to any Zonetail-supported
hotel worldwide. It will also include all local area information on
attractions, events, dining and shopping will also be included. The
app is planned to drive direct bookings, increase incremental
revenue, decrease operating costs, build loyalty and enhance the
entire guest experience. The Zonetail platform also features a
content management system allowing hotels and local businesses the
ability to update and edit their content, providing guests with all
the information they’re looking for all in real time.
Mr. Mark Holmes, President and CEO stated, “Our
mobile platform offers real value to the traveler and to the future
of the travel and hospitality industry. Smartphone and tablet
owners are more likely to use hotel services if they were made
available via mobile devices. The Zonetail mobile app improves the
communication process between the hotel and guest.”
Mark Holmes, stated further, “Our partnership
with AAHOA is instrumental, as they are the largest association of
hoteliers in the world with over 18,000 members, who own almost
half of all the hotels in the U.S. After extensive planning and
testing, we are very excited to launch with AAHOA in Tampa Bay,
with additional markets coming very soon.”
Mr. Chip Rogers, President and CEO of AAHOA
stated, “Connectivity will play an even greater role in a hotel
experience in the future. Hoteliers must prioritize technology and
understand the need for continued growth. With Zonetail, our
members have access to the latest technology to improve the guest
experience and their bottom line.”
The launch in Tampa Bay, Florida is the
beginning of a large national rollout of the Zonetail mobile travel
platform which is planned to eventually cover every U.S. market
where AAHOA members own hotels, along with additional hotels in
Canada and around the world.
