The Global travel industry is currently fraught with inadequacies and challenges ranging from the problems faced by tourists to problems faced by the various travel service providers. The Smart Trip Platform is built to eliminate the issues plaguing both the travel service providers and the travelers. The platform allows all users to connect without any delay, plan trips quickly and efficiently, save money, and partake in a dynamic community. Asides from the fact that the platform provides numerous ranges of services like boat and safaris rental, it also serves as a true knowledge base. The platform is a modern model of travel – minimizing the time expended on research and at the same time exploiting the potentials and authenticity of the experience.
On the platform, users are allowed to plan a trip from the scratch, without having to peruse books, websites and other available resources. The platform comes with a trip planner section which allows someone to find the available options like vehicle rentals, trekking guides, excursions, accommodation options, transportation schedules, and a host of others. With this, users are able to plan their schedule, purchase transport tickets, and book their residential areas ahead of time. The system will automatically provide tips on the local cultures, the most popular attractions, including information that cannot be found in regular guidebooks.
Another feature of this platform is My Ads Section which enables travel businesses to promote their services. It also offers private users the chance to propose or request for a paid service. For Business account holders, they will be required to input their basic service ads to enable them partake in the activities of the platform. For instance, a guesthouse will need to post the room descriptions with their prices, a professional trekking guide will have to assemble the compilation of the itineraries, etc. The range of ads offered by private and business holders is exceeding wide and they include; transportation and food, accommodation, guiding services, private ads, volunteer projects etc.
TripCash (TASH) is the official token of the platform which will be used to facilitate transactions between all stakeholders. The platform will soon partner with various financial institutions to issue the TripCash debit cards to enable users make both offline and online purchases through the crypto funds embedded in the wallet. Smart Trip Platform aims to generate revenue from several channels which include; Transaction fees, Membership fees, Ads revenue, Fees earned from Hot Deals service, and Conversion Fees. All the generated revenue will then be stored inside the customized wallet of the platform which will be later used for the further development and promotion of the platform.
The Smart Trip Platform uses smart contract, blockchain technology and a decentralized architecture which offers numerous advantages. The implementation of blockchain technology on the platform ensures that the users’ data are permanently stored on the decentralized blockchain-powered network. The set of smart contracts also facilitates the efficient operation of the individual components of the platform thereby allowing trusted automatic transactions to be executed among the unknown parties upon meeting the requirements as specified in the smart contract.
