TripAdmit raises €1million to advance digital tipping solution for global tour guides

  • In response to the global shift toward cashless transactions, TripAdmit have launched an innovative digital tipping solution that enables tour guides to receive tips directly through their mobile devices.

    With just a simple tap of an NFC card or a scan of a QR code, guests can transfer tips instantly to the guides’ bank accounts, facilitating secure, transparent and real-time financial exchanges.

    Additionally, TripAdmit has enhanced its platform with AI-assisted review capabilities, utilizing OpenAI’s ChatGPT technology. This feature empowers guests to draft their feedback independently or with AI assistance, delivering prompt, high-quality reviews that provide valuable insights for operators. This dual-functionality marks a significant advancement in streamlining the end of the tour engagement, enhancing both customer and guide interaction in the tours and activities sector.
