Accor and Visa have announced a global partnership to bring new payment experiences to ALL-Accor Live Limitless loyalty members.
The partnership will bring together Accor’s loyalty program and Visa’s global payment capabilities to create the new ALL Visa card. Members who apply for the new Visa card and use it for everyday purchases everywhere Visa is accepted. Accor will collaborate with Visa financial institutions across Europe, America, Middle East and Asia Pacific to issue ALL Visa cards. It will offer members tailored rewards based on customer preferences. They will also have the ability to earn more loyalty points when staying with Accor or when making purchases.
Accor boasts a portfolio of strong and iconic brands across all segments in the most promising markets around the globe. Accor offers unique experiences through its 39 hotel brands, in more than 5,000 hotels and residences across 110 destinations.
The introduction of ALL Visa payment cards aims to leverage Accor’s augmented hospitality ecosystem. ALL Visa will engage customers beyond their stay via industry-leading benefits and innovative digital, mobile-first experiences.
The cobranded payment cards will generate additional customer engagement in hotels and new member recruitment opportunities for ALL as well as spend uplift.
“Partnering with Visa will be a huge boost to Accor as we embark on the shared journey to develop an innovative co-branded payment card. This new initiative will provide unmatched benefits to our members and reinforce the success of our ALL loyalty program by increasing our member base driving additional engagement and giving each member incentives to stay with us more frequently and easily. The development of ALL is a major milestone for us, and in Visa we are very pleased to have found a partner which shares our passion for delivering everyday rewards and recognition.”
“We are delighted to partner with Accor and support the introduction of a new customer loyalty program. Today’s digitally-savvy consumers expect rewards that are tailored to their needs and offer new and unique experiences. I am extremely excited about the power of Accor’s expertise in hospitality coming together with Visa’s global network and digital capabilities. This combination will translate into attractive loyalty and payment products that will be at the forefront of the hospitality market.”
