UOB Malaysia melancarkan ‘The Travel Insider’, pasaran sehenti pengembaraan dalam talian yang pertama oleh sebuah bank bagi memudahkan perancangan percutian
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 13 Januari 2020 – United Overseas Bank (Malaysia) (UOB Malaysia) hari ini mengumumkan pelancaran The Travel Insider di Malaysia, pasaran sehenti (marketplace) pengembaraan dalam talian pertama yang diperkenalkan oleh sebuah bank bagi membantu para pelanggan dan memudahkan mereka mencari, merancang dan menempah percutian mereka.
The Travel Insider, yang mula-mula dilancarkan di Singapura pada 2018, adalah hasil kerjasama antara United Overseas Bank (UOB) dan lebih 500 syarikat terkemuka daripada industri penerbangan, perhotelan dan pelancongan untuk memperkenalkan destinasi dalam talian di mana pengunjung boleh mencari, merancang dan menempah percutian mereka dengan mudah, di samping mendapatkan tawaran penerbangan, penginapan dan pelancongan yang kompetitif.
The Travel Insider memanfaatkan rangkaian serantau dan kepakaran tempatan UOB untuk menyediakan lebih 1,000 tawaran perjalanan, membeli-belah dan makan di seluruh Asia Tenggara, Jepun, Korea, Australia, United Kingdom dan Amerika Syarikat.
Encik Ronnie Lim, Pengarah Urusan dan Ketua Negara Perkhidmatan Kewangan Peribadi, UOB Malaysia, berkata, “Pengembaraan merupakan keutamaan di kalangan pelanggan kami, di mana satu daripada lima ahli kad debit dan kad kredit UOB Malaysia melancong ke luar negara sekurang-kurangnya sekali pada 2019. Kami juga melihat peralihan dalam cara pelanggan kami merancang dan menempah pengembaraan mereka, di mana 81 peratus perbelanjaan berkaitan pengembaraan mereka dilakukan secara dalam talian pada tahun lepas, iaitu peningkatan sebanyak 34 peratus berbanding tahun sebelumnya.”
Sebagai sebahagian daripada perancangan mereka, para pengembara biasanya menghabiskan masa yang lama melakukan pencarian melalui sumber dalam talian dan luar talian untuk menyediakan jadual perjalanan yang terbaik. Tambahan lagi, mereka perlu membandingkan harga hotel, lawatan atau tambang penerbangan. Semua ini bermakna pengembara perlu memproses pelbagai maklumat yang rumit dan memakan banyak masa. Bagi meringankan beban memproses semua maklumat ini, UOB telah mengumpulkan petua dalaman dan kandungan khusus untuk mewujudkan panduan pengembaraan dan juga merancangkan jadual perjalanan. Ini disediakan bersama dengan rakan kongsinya bagi memastikan tawaran yang luas dan kompetitif boleh didapati dengan mudah di satu tempat.
