Most frequent questions regarding the Tourism Pass

Trust our expertise, we’ll answer all your questions!
Before the launching
On the Loyalty Operator platform, you can create as many types of pass as you want, with an unlimited number of services and partners.
- Touristic Pass : for regular visitors, a 24h / 48h / 72h including access to main touristic sites.
- Business Pass : for business travellers, with discounts on restauration services.
- Ambassador Pass : to incite citizens to rediscover their territory and buy local products.
The cost of the Pass needs to be calculated based on three parameters:
- The cost of the services: paying the partners who gave a benefit.
- The cost of distribution: resellers’ fees and advertising costs (posters, flyers…)
- The cost of exploitation: crafting and managing the cards.
We furnish a detailed guide which describes the launching process.

The City Passes can be compliant with parking devices, to encourage the visitors to do their shopping in the city center !
Using the pass on the sites
When visiting a site, the tourist shows his pass to the service provider. The service provider just has to identify the visitor by scanning its Pass, and validate on the screen the used service. In the case a visitor loses his pass, he can be identified through his name.
Some of the service providers are mobile, touristic trains as an example. This is why we conceived a 100% nomadic validation mobile app! This app features an offline mode in case of network failures.
No, the app is designed to be fluid and efficient. The provider only needs to scan the pass so that the visitor’s data appears. Then, the provider only needs to validate the service in order to count the service and fuel the datas.
Managing treasury
For each type of Pass, you define the amount of the commission for each reseller. This commission is then automatically calculated for each use of the City Card.
For each service, you define a public price and your negociated cost. As an example, the public price of the entrance of the Modern Art Museum could be 10€ and the negotiated cost 7€ per visitor having the Pass.
According to the negotiated cost, we compute in real-time the compensation for each service provider.
