What a Concept!

Presented by: Lawrence Turel

A Very Simple Concept

Technology Elements of the CauseTravel.com Platform

CauseTravel.com offers non-profit organizations a web based online travel reservation platform which pays commissions on the consumed bookings of hotel accommodations, airfares, rental cars and highly discounted vacation packages. The portal is powered by the strengths of Priceline.com, Expedia.com and Booking.com. Utilizing their proprietary databases and the four major global travel distribution systems, we can deliver the best rates and options available in the marketplace to the non-profit organization’s supporters who use the platform. The platform provides a cutting edge travel solution where mobile, tablet and desktop users enjoy a fully tailored experience while searching for travel products. Best of all we offer the service absolutely free of charge to any non-profit organization who wishes to create an account.

Low Price Guarantee

Just like Priceline.com, Expedia.com or Travelocity.com we also offer a Low Price Guarantee on our massive worldwide inventory of over 700,000 hotel rooms which have been critiqued by more than 4 million travelers. The portal also offers 229 airlines operating at 5,690 airports in over 180 countries around the world, 18 car rental companies with over 28,000 pickup locations and more than 40,000 hotels which offer discounted package rates in over 8,000 cities around the globe.

However, unlike these websites we also guarantee that 6% of the amount paid for hotel bookings will be paid directly to the participating non-profit organizations. We also pay generous commissions on hotel reservations, flights, car rentals and highly discounted vacation packages; as including these ancillary booking capabilities increases the total number of hotel stays booked and the ultimate revenues generated by the program. Tracking of all sales and incoming commissions is done through our cutting-edge, secure and highly transparent web based tracking platform which is accessible 24/7 by the non-profit organization.

Cause Travel Marketing supplies all the marketing tools and materials needed for running a successful revenue generating campaign with the travel portal. Cause Travel Marketing specializes in effective and affordable marketing ideas for getting the travel portal in front of your supporters. Cause Travel Marketing brings together a diverse well-respected team of travel industry veterans and marketing professionals offering a robust and strategic suite of marketing options which are available for free from within the web based tracking platform.

Generating Continued Patron Support

Gift & Save’s prior partner company, Destination Rewards, Inc., was founded in 2001 to create a rewards program for Fortune 500 Companies. Destination Rewards® is the industry's most innovative provider of zero liability rewards programs, specializing in loyalty, incentive and engagement solutions. Since inception in 2001, Destination Rewards has helped some of the world’s most successful brands, such as Citibank, Coca-Cola, Wells Fargo and Verizon, drive customer retention and influence behaviors at a fraction of the cost of traditional loyalty and incentive programs. Destination Rewards success led to its acquisition in December 2013 by Deluxe Corporation (NYSE:DLX) to add to its portfolio of companies serving more than four million corporate customers.

The History of How We Got Here

Destination Rewards, Inc. www.DestinationRewards.com

Gift and Save was created using the Destination Rewards platform to raise money for many great charities such as Feeding America, 4H, Make-a-Wish, PBS, United Way, Alzheimer’s Research, Kid Fitness, Adopt A Pet and several hundred High Schools. This was a very successful program for these entities. In 2013, Destination Rewards, Inc. was sold, leaving Gift and Save, Inc. without a platform. From our experience, we learned we needed a fundraiser that did not require the non-profit to sell a product, ask for a donation, or interfere with fund-raising and donations they were currently doing.

That is when Cause Travel was developed.

Revenue Generating Potential

Data which has been maintained over the last 4-5 years and presented by various online travel portals indicates that typically 3.2% of a travel websites monthly marketing reach will book a hotel stay each month. As an example, if the reach is 1,000 people, this would typically generate 32 hotel bookings per month at an average booking price of $220. However, the management of these large online travel portals feel that our program maintains a “loyalty factor” which should result in a percentage as high as 5% of a particular non-profit organizations reach booking a travel reservation each month. As another example, if the reach of an organization is 10,000 people, a 5% booking rate would result in 500 hotel bookings per month at an average of $220 per booking. Which would generate gross sales of $110,000 per month, the 6% going to the non-profit organization would result in $6,600 per month from the program.
