Wyndham adds mobile check-in at nearly 6,000 North American hotels

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts has completed nationwide rollout of mobile check-in and checkout of all economy and midscale hotels in North America.

That amounts to nearly 6,000 hotels, around two-thirds of its global portfolio.

It has taken just a few months to complete and the company says it is the first to offer the service at scale.

The company launched its new app in September.

"This is a pivotal moment for Wyndham and our reimagined mobile app, which arrived at a critical time amid the pandemic," said Jessica Davidson, SVP, Digital at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. "

"Today’s travelers expect streamlined, low-contact experiences and are seeking established brands that can deliver."

The Wyndham app allows guests to manage their rewards account and use ‘Lightning Book’ a streamlined feature to search and book the closest Wyndham branded hotel based on a traveler’s location.
