Otipass & You - February 2023

Word from our CEO:

Dear present and future customers,

With a few days of delay, I would like to take this opportunity to renew my wishes for 2023, hoping that we will avoid a new health crisis and that you will all remain healthy. The year 2022 has shown very positive signs in the tourist pass market, with for many destinations the return has equivalent figures if not higher than those of 2019. Not all foreigners have yet returned but many French have remained in our beautiful country. We can think and even hope that behaviors will change sustainably and that many tourists will travel less and consume more local products, even if we quickly resume bad habits. OTIPASS has already taken these changes into account by adding the corresponding functionalities in our platform (product purchases, loyalty program, gift cards, mobility services, etc.) and we use them already in Drôme and Alsace.

2023 is the year of the Rugby World Cup in France just before the Olympic Games in 2024: these events will boost tourism activity in our country and they are extraordinary opportunities to reflect on how together to offer tourists simpler yet richer user routes, to retain them by accompanying them from destination to destination and to improve the visibility of each of you on the networks without going through intermediaries that are too expensive and that jeopardize our sovereignty. 

More and more of you are using our services and we thank you for this: it is thanks to you that we can continue to invest and improve, and we hope to see you all at the users club days on 9 and 10 March.

Philippe Rousselet, Founding President
