The web app Lolli, which has gained popularity with Bitcoin enthusiasts because it rewards users in Bitcoin for online purchases, has just announced the addition of a major booking service- Hotels.com to its list of partners. Owing to this new partnership, Lolli is involved with Booking.com and Hotels.com, two of the global top three travel websites, and accounts for over 40% of transactions. Hotels.com currently manages 325,000+ hotel listings within their book of business.
According to Alex Adelman- CEO of Lolli, the New York based firm is putting these major partnerships to use by looking into international expansion in the nearest future (which is about six months from now). He added that Canada has been getting high requests from clients, and the firm is looking to make it a test market for their international expansion plan.
As a result of the types of user feedback his team gets, Adelman assessed that almost half of Lolli’s numerous users are earning bitcoin for the first time. While booking trips that cost several thousand dollars, inclusive of flights and hotels, some Lolli users have been able to to earn more than 100 USD worth of bitcoin rewards.
Booking Hotels
Created in 2018, Lolli lets users receive Satoshis (sats- the smallest unit of bitcoin currency worth of 0.00000001 BTC) when they shop online. The firm asserts to be the first bitcoin rewards web-based application with over 500 prominent brands as partners, including, Marriott, Priceline, and VRBO along with leading brand name of American global hotel service, Hilton among others.
Earn Free Bitcoins Instantly
Resulting from the partnership with Hotels.com, Lolli now empowers international travelers to earn up to 3.5% bitcoin back from procurements on the website, according to Adelman in an announcement. He added that the firm is looking to grow the number of new bitcoiners by testing content for teaching people about stacking stats. Adelman is hopeful that very soon, 90% of Lolli’s clients will be those new to cryptocurrency, because he wants the market to get bigger.
Regarding other apps with cash-back rewards, Adelman isn’t intimidated by the possibility of competition. On the contrary, Lolli is preparing to work on its own mobile application as part of strategies for international expansion. According to Adelman, a large percentage of international customers are on mobile, so introducing a mobile in the U.S. is a suitable way for the firm to prepare to go international. The firm believes that people who want bitcoin are young, revolutionary customers that merchants are interested in, and that there’s an opportunity for merchants to make money and that drives bitcoin adoption.
Reviews from users reveal that the firm is threading the right path as Stephanie Verin – a Switzerland-based Lolli fan revealed that she looks forward to the startup’s international expansion, adding that the firm’s approach to cryptocurrency goes away from the typical dark, low-spirited and very masculine imprinting that a lot bitcoin related content/startups are still using. According to her, Lolli is the first startup amongst many that is thinking outside the bitcoin ethos and yet is accepted by all the bitcoiners and even newbies in the cryptocurrency industry.
