WHAT MAKES US SPECIAL?

Our customers are what drive us. Throughtourist guest card platforms and digital guest registration, we are committed to ensuring that local and destination marketing can be effectively integrated with issues such as spa and visitor fees, tourism financing, data protection, and registration requirements in a user-friendly manner.

For many years, we have benefited from the inspiration we gain at DestinationCamp. Through open dialogue with destinations, software providers, and consultants, we are able to take away valuable new ideas each year—not only for future developments but also for our day-to-day work. After all, even for technology companies, it is ultimately the people and ideas that matter most.

When are we the right choice?

We're the ones to turn to when you need things to work. Our core competencies are consulting and implementation of card and billing systems with interfaces to all kinds of systems.

GUEST CARD PLATFORMS

The Guest Card as the key to leisure and mobility: By seamlessly integrating public transportation, access systems, agencies, and information platforms, the AVS system becomes the linchpin of a comprehensive guest card for destinations. Of course, the system is and remains compliant with billing and data protection regulations.

DIGITAL REGISTRATION FORM

Comprehensive registration of guests and their stays ensures accurate billing, management options, and valuable statistics for destination marketing. Always in view: amendments to the Registration Act and requirements from administrative and marketing departments.

FEASIBILITY STUDIES

Our many years of experience in the consulting field enable us to provide valuable insights regarding the feasibility and profitability of a guest post. With the help of our mobility concepts, systems, and interfaces, we are happy to assist with the design, cost estimation, and technical implementation.

THE DESTINATION CARD OF TOMORROW

The world of cards is also changing: Digital cards on smartphones have become indispensable. We’re not standing still when it comes to card types either. For example, job cards—which allow local companies to provide tourism services to their employees as tax-free benefits in kind—are currently gaining popularity.
