Editor's Notes

  • #2 Allows tourist attractions to develop mobile apps for free.
  • #7 Revenue Sharing: we develop and launch the app completely free of charge, and then share the revenue that the app generates once it is being downloaded.We will also update the app with any changes to our platform, providing you with long term support.License the app you pay up front for the app’s development, but then keep our share of the revenue.Alternatively, you could offer it to visitors for free.
  • #8 We can use videos, audio features & images.If using audio, we can include different languages, child friendly tours, tours for the blind/visually impaired.Quickly add in new content and update all guides.
  • #10 Longevity of our apps
