TUI Furthers Connectivity with Redeam to add more Big Brand Attractions to Expanding Experiences Portfolio

The world’s leading tourism group continues to enhance its digital platform capabilities with deeper Redeam integration

 

Broomfield, CO (June 30, 2021) – Redeam, the leading and only independent global connectivity stack with digitized channel management and touchless voucher redemption/reconciliation solutions for the Experiences industry, today announced the expansion of its partnership with TUI, the world’s leading tourism group. Through its integration with Redeam, which is connected to top attractions, operators, and events, TUI will add more famous attractions to its expanding portfolio of experiences and further ensure smooth and seamless booking processes for customers. TUI, which continuously invests in new and innovative digital capabilities, collaborates with different technology businesses like Redeam in order to serve and grow its portfolio of over 170,000 excursions, activities, tickets, and transfers. TUI chose to work with Redeam because of its top-quality Things To Do portfolio, which provides real-time inventory and availability, and the ease of its connection, which enables instant ticket confirmation and many reduced manual processes.

“Redeam is proud to expand our partnership with TUI,” said Redeam Vice President, Strategic Partnerships and Business Development Martin Harlow. “This latest extension of our partnership is not only of mutual strategic benefit, but it also endorses Redeam’s incentive to continue to develop and push the boundaries of connectivity technologies in our Things To Do vertical so we can improve our premier technology for all.”

“As Redeam continues its global expansion of connectivity, we’re pleased to bring even more top-quality supply — soon to even include live events like concerts, shows, and sporting events — to our valued distribution partners like TUI,” said Redeam CEO Melanie Meador.

“Expanding our collaboration with Redeam continues the growth of our experiences portfolio, with a specific focus on increasing the number of well-known attractions we can now offer our customers,” said Claudio Bellinzona, Executive Vice President of Supply Management at TUI Musement, the Tours & Activities division of TUI Group. “We were already offering great attractions, such as Top of The Rock and Sightseeing Pass, but as travel returns and people look for new experiences, we can now provide even more options, including Walt Disney World.”
