Do you still remember the time when every eligible Singaporean could book for attraction tickets, hotel stay-cations and local tours using the SingapoRediscovers Vouchers?
Well, we are bringing this up because our guest for today is one of the industry players that helped to facilitate your SingapoRediscovers voucher redemption.
Founded in 2013, GlobalTix is one of the leading reservation and distribution platforms that provide end-to-end solutions for attractions and operators of tours and activities to grow, manage and connect tourist activities to travel agents.
How does it differ from your Klook or KKDay you might ask? Well, think of it this way, GlobalTix is not an online travel agency that manages and aggregates your tour bookings.
Instead, works as a wholesaler providing reservation and distribution platforms for clients such as Gardens by the Bay, Mandai Wildlife Group and the Singapore Airlines.
That means all customer bookings and data goes are managed by the attractions or tour operators themselves rather than GlobalTix.
But how exactly does GlobalTix position itself in the ticketing business? And with tourism coming back in full swing, what does it mean for GlobalTix’s product offerings?
