Unlock Protocol is powering the NFT-based memberships used by Globe Thrivers, the members-only travel community saving travellers significant time and stress when planning trips. The integration makes it possible for members of the Globe Thrivers community to have membership NFTs land directly in their inbox, without the need for a crypto wallet. The memberships unlock discounted airline and hotel rates, verified reviews and recommendations, and exclusive travel experiences across the world. Additionally, members participate in a one-of-a-kind loyalty program that incentivizes travelers and locals to share their favorite hot spots which builds a sense of trust within the community of travelers. By providing valued recommendations and reviews, members earn points redeemable for discounted airfare, hotel stays and more.

“Communities like Globe Thrivers are the perfect use case for the membership technology we are building at Unlock. NFTs provide a way for brands to create connections with their customers that go beyond anything we’ve seen in the travel market before,” said Julien Genestoux, CEO and Founder of Unlock. “Instead of relying on email lists and databases of user information, NFTs allow brands across an entire industry to continuously provide value to their holders by automatically unlocking new experiences, perks, access and anything else brands can imagine.”

“We are excited to announce our partnership with Unlock Protocol. Their platform provides a seamless and user-friendly solution for managing memberships on-chain, which has been beneficial for both our team and members who are new to the Web 3 space, as well as our brand partners. With Unlock, we are able to efficiently manage all memberships, assign email addresses to NFTs, and provide QR codes for easy access,” said Shir Ibgui, Founder of Globe Thrivers. “Additionally, our members can make membership purchases without a wallet and receive their NFTs via email. We appreciate Unlock’s flexibility and exceptional support throughout the development cycle, and we highly recommend them as a valuable partner for any business seeking to create memberships in web3.”

Globe Thrivers was created by CEO & Founder Shir Ibgui and is a one-stop travel guide for wanderlusters, utilizing recommendations from members around the world, from travelers and locals. Members can benefit from sharing photos and lists of their personal experiences and earn points in the process. These authentic moments help build trust and encourage engagement within the Globe Thrivers travel club. By taking memberships on-chain, Globe Thrivers can unlock a much deeper connection with members.

By building on Unlock Protocol, Globe Thrivers makes it easy for members to save time when planning travel, gain access to this insider knowledge, earn discounted airfare and hotels and unlock exclusive travel experiences. In addition to those perks, Globe Thrivers members can become local ambassadors themselves and provide their insights on the best local experiences, restaurants and more in exchange for credits towards discounted airfare, lodging and more.
