    At Hopper, we are on a mission to build the world’s best travel products – combining a world-class travel agency with proprietary fintech ancillaries to help users travel better and our partners earn more. We are a global travel platform that powers the Hopper app, Hopper.com, and our B2B business, HTS (Hopper Technology Solutions).

    By leveraging massive amounts of data and advanced machine learning algorithms, Hopper developed a proprietary portfolio of fintech ancillaries that offer peace of mind when booking travel and address common customer pain points, including price volatility, trip flexibility, and avoiding trip disruptions. 

    The Hopper platform serves hundreds of millions of travelers globally and continues to capture market share around the world.

    In recent years, Hopper has evolved into a global travel agency and e-commerce and travel fintech provider that powers some of the world’s largest brands and financial institutions. Through HTS, our B2B division, the company supercharges its partners’ direct channels by integrating our fintech products on their sites or powering end-to-end travel portals.

    Today, our partners include leading travel brands like Capital One, Nubank, AirAsia MOVE, Air Canada, and many more. HTS operates sales channels that range from Hopper, the premier app for Gen Z in North America, to a worldwide network of travel rewards portals for credit card holders and mobile marketplaces for leading brands like Tripadvisor.

    - Almost 30% of our app customers purchase at least one fintech product when making a booking. Of Hopper app customers who purchase fintech, they purchase 1.7 fintech products on average per order.

    - Given the success of its fintech products, Hopper launched in B2B business, HTS (Hopper Technology Solutions), which today represents more than 75% of the business.

    - Through HTS, any travel provider (airlines, hotels, banks, travel agencies, etc.) can integrate and seamlessly distribute Hopper’s fintech or travel inventory on their direct channels.

    As its first HTS partnership, the company partnered with Capital One to co-develop Capital One Travel, a new travel portal designed specifically for cardholders. - Other HTS partners include Air Canada, AirAsia MOVE, CommBank, Nubank, Tripadvisor and many more – with several new partnerships to be announced this year.
