GOeureka — Blockchain Hotel Booking Platform

Today I’m going to talk about the traveling industry. The joy of life is about to grow as a person, accomplish your goals in life while learning to be happy and one way to do that is through traveling the world, meeting places, learning about different cultures and what makes us humans different and unique. We all have something to learn from one another and travelling lets us see the world through a different lens that we are used to in our routine life.

Vacations are important to everybody, but they can be a hassle sometimes, because of the airline you chose, the hotel you’re staying and the activities you can book for your trip. This all depends on booking agencies. I’m going to talk about GOeureka, an online booking platform.

What is GOeureka?

The need for a platform like the one GOeureka is offering arises from the fact, that current commission structures in travel agencies is ridiculously high. Not only that, but their loyalty systems are non existent or broken. One of the current problems of traditional travel agencies is that they lack the ability to access and modify in real time product availability, inventory and pricing information to provide accurate results. They can’t quickly curate relevant search results specifically targeted to their customers, and most travel agencies don’t posses proper tools for optimized booking management. This is why a blockchain solution such as GOeureka’s comes into play.

What are the benefits?

The token is based on the Ethereum network which helps eliminates high commission fees and makes loyalty points more manageable and interactive. The web application will be integrated with channel managers so a majority of hotels can be included in the dashboard for a robust and extensive search to book hotels. Travellers that book through GOeureka will be granted post booking discounts.

Hotel loyalty programs will be integrated within the platform. This information will be managed in real time. The process will be managed automatically unlike conventional loyalty programs that are time consuming and costly. These hotels will have the chance to interact intimately with the customer and engage properly by offering real time housekeeping information, concierge services, live chat, room services and events by pushing updates to the user’s dashboard. The check-in and Check-out will be a seamless process thanks to this technology.

How does it work?

Theres a GO token that serves as a store of value of investment. You will be able to exchange tokens for GO credits in the GO store app. Credits are the ones you used for products and services in the platform, they represent the liquid asset of the ecosystem.

One of the most important features is the proxy wallet for ether transactions. A conventional crypto wallet requires the user to handle his/her keys, store them in a hardware wallet, keep them safe and all of this causes the user to stress, get anxious and feel overwhelmed about the whole custody of the wallet. Thanks to the Proxy wallet concept, the user will go through a proof of identity so the wallet never interacts directly with the valuable keys, instead, it will interact solely with the proof of identity.

Token Sale

There will be 600 million tokens sold in the token sale. The tokens are from the ERC20 standard and are considered utility tokens. There’s been already some rounds with discounts and we are currently in the last month of the sale were investors can enjoy a 5% discount of the base price per token. For more information I encourage you to visit their website https://goeureka.io/ and read their white paper https://goeureka.io/#download to get more detailed information about the token sale and the token economy of the ecosystem.

Conclusion

I believe the project is in the right direction when it comes to solving the current travel industry issues of booking hotels. This industry is highly competitive and this company is solving the issues through an innovative approach representing a huge competitive advantage, positioning and positive brand awareness for the future.
