Experience Columbus goes Live with Ripe

We are excited to announce Experience Columbus has gone live on Ripe’s Monetize_Rez product! With Monetize_Rez, Experience Columbus now has a fully customized hotel e-commerce solution that can bundle exclusive local experiences, better serve visitors, send hotel partners low-cost reservations, generate revenue, drive economic impact, and measure the results.

Ripe made the onboarding and launch of our booking engine a breeze, even during the pandemic. When people are ready to travel, we are eager to return overnight visitation to Columbus with the help of our new platform. We are excited to be able to easily measure the success of future marketing campaigns and the economic impact of overnight stays on Columbus.

We look forward to supporting Columbus in safely returning visitors to their Destination amid and post-COVID, which was a key reason they selected Ripe over alternative software. With Experience Columbus already working with Bandwango, a mutual partner, we’ll be able to bundle Bandwango experiences with lodging to provide exclusive offers to stimulate demand and promote local merchants and hotels.
