STARTING THE SPRING TOURISM SEASON OF THE YEAR OF THE MOUSE
The beginning of the year brings great opportunities for the tourism industry with the long Tet holidays and the increasing demand for spring travel. Travelers not only need rest and family gatherings but also want to explore and experience new destinations.
The latest data released by the General Statistics Office shows that more than 1.5 million international visitors came to Vietnam in January, nearly a 74% increase compared to the same period last year. This is a positive sign, marking the start of a prosperous year for tourism.
However, this requires travel companies to constantly innovate to meet the needs of tourists. Among them, digital payment is gradually becoming a new standard in the tourism industry due to its convenience, security, and speed; this method not only promotes digital transformation but also creates a better customer experience.
In fact, applying financial technology to the tourism industry has brought many breakthroughs: creating a new trend of booking tours, flights, hotels… and making online payments through digital banks or payment intermediaries. Not only for domestic tourists, but cashless payments are a great advantage for international tourists when they come to Vietnam.
They do not need to exchange cash, simplify operations, and have more time to enjoy the beautiful scenery and specialties. From there, it increases the competitiveness of travel companies as well as the spending of tourists when experiencing a variety of services. Therefore, travel companies need to be alert to seize opportunities, choose optimal payment solutions to boost revenue during this peak season.
