Scapia, India’s travel fintech, announced a bouquet of product launches as part of their Monsoon Release 2024, enhancing the overall travel experience for Indians, including a first-of-its-kind offering of Scapia Airport Privileges. In addition, Scapia has upgraded its international travel experience by launching a 6-month no-cost EMI on all international travel bookings, “Book with zero” on stays, a real-time forex converter, and a slew of other innovative products for their customers.  

Scapia Airport Privileges: No more long queues to enter the lounge

For the first time in India, Scapia, in partnership with its banking partner Federal Bank, is transforming airport experiences with an innovative offering. Scapia Federal credit card customers can now enjoy complimentary dining, retail shopping, and spa services across all airport outlets, along with unlimited access to airport lounges. While there are only 32 airports with lounges, Scapia Airport Privileges have been launched in 72 airports. These privileges can be easily activated through the Scapia app, allowing users to receive full value back when using their Scapia Federal Credit Card for purchases at any airport. 

This unparalleled feature allows Scapia Federal Credit Card users to bypass traditional lounge limitations, ensuring that long queues and crowded spaces no longer stand in the way of a premium pre-flight experience.

6-month No-Cost EMI for all international travel booked on Scapia

India is set to become the fifth-largest outbound tourism market in three years and is growing at 17% CAGR outpacing China’s growth, according to a recent report by Bernstein. To cater to this growing demand for international travel among millennials and make it more affordable, Scapia has introduced a 6-month no-cost EMI for all its international flight and stay bookings. Scapia also identified from customers that narrowing down on the right international flights is tricky since the flight options with the lowest prices have long layovers, and direct flights are the most expensive. To help its customers find the right flight easily, Scapia has also launched an intuitive best flight combo recommendation on its app to filter the search from hundreds of options to a handful that are best suited for travellers.  

Scapia Launches ‘Book with zero’ for stays 

With Scapia’s new Book with Zero feature, users can book their stay without committing to an immediate payment. This option to pay a few days before the check-in, paired with a 6-month no-cost EMI on international stays, offers unparalleled flexibility of payment for its users.

Anil Goteti, Founder of Scapia, said: “Young Indian millennials have big dreams to travel abroad and we are here to make those dreams come alive. As part of our Monsoon Release 2024, we are excited to launch a bouquet of innovative solutions for travellers including first-of-its-kind airport privileges in 72 airports and a 6-month no-cost EMI on all international bookings made on Scapia app. ” 

In addition to launching these features, Scapia has also announced several other innovative product launches associated with travel and their co-branded credit card.
