Wyndham upgrades app for midscale, economy hotel brands to seize on pandemic travel trends in Oregon.

Brief:

• Wyndham Hotels & Resorts updated its mobile app to provide mobile check-in and check-out, a “Lightning Book” feature to reserve a room quickly and keyless room entry at select locations, among other features. Mobile check-in and checkout are now available at 300 hotels in the U.S. and will be expanded to 6,000 hotels this year, per an announcement.
• The Wyndham app has an “in-stay mode” that lets guests see the most important information about their hotel within three days of their stay, including mobile check-in, text messaging with the front desk, and local attractions. The “my app passport” is a gamified feature to track in-app actions like booking a stay or redeeming points from the Wyndham Rewards loyalty program.
• While upscale hotel chains have led the way in investing in mobile capabilities, the move by the parent of brands like La Quinta, Days Inn, and Super 8 suggests such features are a must-have for all hospitality marketers amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Insight:

Wyndham’s updated app is notable for providing services that have been available at upscale hospitality brands to a broader group of the economy and midscale hotels. Mobile check-in and check-out and keyless room entry have become more important as travelers seek to limit physical contact with others during the pandemic.
