Blockskye Links the World of Consumer Loyalty with Managed Business Travel - Debuts B360 with United Airlines as Launch Supplier
Fulfilling its ambition to bring customer-centric payment solutions to the business travel marketplace, Blockskye is proud to introduce B360, a first-of-its-kind payment platform linking consumer loyalty cards with business travel management.
Traditionally, companies have relied on specialty providers for business travel payments, offering minimal benefits to the actual traveler. Using Blockskye's robust platform, B360 enables corporations to allow consumer credit cards for business travel payments without compromising reporting or duty of care standards. B360 provides corporations with their own loyalty program, incentivizing travelers to earn the benefits of their preferred form of payment in exchange for selecting suppliers that align with their company’s cost or sustainability goals, benefiting both the traveler and the enterprise.
Blockskye and United Airlines have an agreement in principle for United to be the launch supplier for Blockskye360. "We are pleased that Blockskye has continued its innovation in corporate travel by bringing the benefits of United Mileage-Plus® to more business travelers in a manner that also benefits corporate buyers," said Doreen Burse, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales for United Airlines.
“Building on the successful deployment of BlockskyeMAX with our launch client, B360 has now become Blockskye's second payment platform for the corporate travel marketplace. We are excited to demonstrate to more customers how Blockskye's technology can drive millions of dollars in savings for large enterprise travel programs”, said Brook Armstrong, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of Blockskye.
