Welcome accommodation houses, tourism operators and all hospitality & tourism businesses to Bartercard!
Whilst this industry is diverse in business types, the bottom-line objective, whether you are a tourism body, major hotel chain, tourist attraction, restaurant or 20-room motel in the country, is to increase your guest/visitor numbers. "Discounts” and "special offers” are commonplace within the industry and "price point”/average value is difficult to maintain.
This industry as a whole experiences seasonal highs and lows and is extremely competitive during all seasons. Bartercard’s business solution offers a completely new market of business customers with consistent travel patterns and a large disposable income source.
