Spafinder Wellness launches Wellness App with network of 25,000 providers

By

Spafinder Wellness has launched a new mobile platform, The Wellness App, which gives users the ability to find, book and pay for wellness services from their mobile phones.

The app helps users to find yoga and Pilates studios, fitness clubs, spas, salons and wellness travel destinations, bringing together 25,000 providers from Spafinder’s network.

“The app bridges the many gaps that have made wellness offerings diffuse and inconsistent, and brings together all types of providers, from large, established businesses to single-location establishments, to offer consumers a unified, seamless experience under one umbrella,” said Pete Ellis, chairman and CEO of Spafinder Wellness.

Behind the scenes, the Spafinder Wellness platform allows for payment processing to these locations with the app, even with uncommon point-of-sale or booking systems. Starting in May, users will also be able to make an appointment or reserve a class at select locations.

Wellness App launch partners include Elemis, Mindbody, Zeel and Booker.

Consumers can also download their Spafinder Wellness 365 Cards to the app and use them to purchase from providers in the Spafinder Wellness Network. Additionally, The Wellness App is integrated with Spafinder’s My365Rewards, allowing users points for a variety of in-app and on-site behaviours.

Users will also be able to get location-based, real-time promotions and special offers and notifications of nearby deals. When they achieve Silver and Gold Rewards levels, they receive exclusive offers and invitations to special events.

“We believe finding ways to feel good and stay healthy should be easy and rewarded,” said Ellis. “With The Wellness App, Spafinder Wellness gives users a simple way to keep wellness funds handy and find, book and pay for services they choose.”
