WAYFINDERS Travel has introduced the Waypoint Connect app, a new neutral platform for travel advisors and suppliers to help maximise the value of trade events and ease the burden of digital administration.
Benefits of the app include helping advisors better coordinate their event invitations by bringing a calendar into one system, while suppliers can lower the number of no-shows and synergise their invite processes.
Wayfinders founder Sarah Webster said that, in an environment where advisors have to “spin too many plates” and suppliers struggle with “endless emails and overlapping invitations”, Waypoint Connect will help everyone operate more efficiently by bringing travel suppliers and advisors together into “one calm, well-organised place”.
Webster stressed the new app is not designed to compete with consortia portals, trade media, or specialist services, but rather act as a neutral coordination layer to assist the travel sector operate more efficiently while maintaining control of their own profiles.
Features include a centralised trade-events calendar, QR check-ins to verify attendance, tools for suppliers to share updates, and a fluid advisor contact register.
Pre-registration is open, with early adopter pricing in place for founding suppliers.
