"Our app combines massive travel inventory and weekly deals to help members save time and money — whether they’re planning a business trip or well-deserved vacation."
The app, available on iOS and Android platforms, lets customers filter searches on price, star rating, distance from current location and TripAdvisor ranking.
There is a same day or next day last minute ‘deals’ function displaying products at up to 60% off he normal retail price, and inventory features 40,000 hotels and 10,000 activities in more than 4,500 cities.
"Our mission as a membership club is to provide legendary member service and stay relevant to our member wherever and whenever they shop," Iannone said.
A division of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., Sam’s Club Travel launched earlier this year in partnership with Orlando based Tourico Holidays, a leading travel brokerage company supplying products to 4,900 clients across 100 countries.
