Data Point Partners to Lead the Development of Xplorie’s New Tours and Activities Technology Platform

Xplorie, the nation’s leading activity provider to the vacation rental industry, announced a partnership with Data Point Partners for the development of a robust tours and activities eCommerce platform designed to power the company’s rapidly growing number of complimentary activity programs. Featuring integrations with leading reservation management systems, Xplorie’s new technology platform is designed to deliver a simple and satisfying user experience for Xplorie’s customers while enabling its property management partners to deliver an even more personalized guest experience.

“Further automation is crucial in order to meet the increasing demand for our complimentary activity programs by property managers, guests, and local activity providers,” said Xplorie President & CEO Matthew Loney who has overseen the company’s 300% growth since 2016, “with return on experience becoming a critical metric within the vacation rental industry, our new platform will ensure that our clients not only continue to meet guest expectations but exceed them in ways previously not envisioned.”

Design and strategy of the new platform are being led by Kevin McLaughlin, former CEO and Co-founder of Smart Destinations, while engineering and development are being led by Matt Higgins, the former CTO of Smart Destinations who, together with a dedicated team of engineers, will be exclusively working on the project. With over 50 years of combined experience in the tours and activities industry, the Data Point Partnership is expected to hasten the technology’s time-to-market allowing Xplorie to remain on its current growth trajectory.

“In an industry where most distributors’ products are indistinguishable, Xplorie’s business model of providing complimentary activities is truly unique,” said Data Point Partners Co-Founder Kevin McLaughlin, “but what I think is going to surprise people is how this technology will allow Xplorie to expand its business model into other verticals and business opportunities perhaps previously unavailable. We are excited to have been chosen to lead this development and to join an incredible team that is working to reimagine the vacation experience.”
