Why Blockchain?
By leveraging blockchain technology, Gozo is providing greater efficiency, liquidity and travel savings to the consumer. Gozo’s simple and user friendly app allows users to harness the power of blockchain to track, exchange and redeem valuable loyalty reward points into crypto tokens or vice versa, or for Gozo travel club membership. Gozo Travel Club Members benefit from wholesale priced travel and access to premium benefits such as free airport VIP lounge access, travel insurance, best price guarantee, medi-jet evacuation and more.
Loyalty point partner programs will also reap benefits from Gozo’s tokenized loyalty reward platform. Partners can customize the Gozo platform to fit their loyalty reward plan for their customers, providing partners with a secure, transparent and frictionless customer experience.
The Industry
Loyalty Reward Programs
The first travel loyalty reward program was launched by American Airlines in 1981. The number of loyalty reward programs has skyrocketed to the point that every major travel business has a program or is associated with one. 66% of Americans collect reward points. Over 25% of frequent flyer rewards expire without being used. This waste of value translates into a multi-billion-dollar opportunity that Gozo will help convert into value for Gozo Wallet holders.
As touted by large consulting firms, the future of loyalty reward programs will use blockchain technology. Blockchain powered loyalty points with built-in smart contract features, or as Gozo calls it - smart points, is the next logical evolution in loyalty reward program platforms. Smart points will simplify program management, with transferability to friends and family, acquisition and redemption through partner interoperability programs, and much more. Gozo will have first mover advantage with the support of tokenized loyalty reward atomic swaps, as a new crop of loyalty point programs on the blockchain begin to emerge in the coming years.
Online Travel
Travel is an $8.27 trillion industry with total direct travel sales of $2.57 trillion and direct online sales of $630 billion, recorded in 2017. This leaves a gap of $1.94 trillion of direct sales taking place offline. Gozo aims to offer offline and off-chain users a tokenized gateway to buy their travel products and services online with loyalty reward points through the Gozo PLUS travel savings club, capturing part of the $1.94 trillion in offline sales and part of the $630 billion of traditional online sales.
