Hot 25 Startups 2019: Conichi

Conichi’s sole focus on the corporate sector, rather than on the typically higher-profile leisure consumer, has allowed it to not get distracted from the shiny toys in mobile travel and, instead, build a genuinely useful product that helps business travelers manage their hotel stay.

The ongoing shift to low-tech/high-impact tools, such as digital keys and mobile payments, will only help the company’s growth.

Goals for 2019

Conichi will continue to place emphasis on enabling intelligent payments at hotels with its smarthotel product. It can guarantee the 100% acceptance and compliance of all common payments forms including virtual payments by fully automating the payment flow. The automation boosts the traveler experience at hotels, reduces staff workload and increases the transparency of hotel spend for corporates.
