Go USA Card launches, a perfect Corporate Gift and Employee
Incentive, brings USA Travel Attractions
November 2, 2005 (Boston, MA) - Travel enthusiasts this holiday
season will unwrap the power to enjoy the best of nine cities
across the U.S., thanks to friends, family and corporate
gift-givers. Smart Destinations' Go USA Card is the first
product of its kind and is revolutionizing how consumers
maximize their travel experience: a single card offering
unlimited, flexible, fully pre-paid admission to hundreds of
attractions in multiple cities nationwide. Customers can
purchase the Go USA Card in increments of 1, 2, 3, 5 or 7 days,
to be used any time within a year at any combination of more
than 300 attractions participating in the following markets:
Boston, San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle, Chicago, Orlando,
Miami, Los Angeles and Hawaii. Los Angeles will be available
starting November 15. Go USA Cards can be purchased online at
www.GoUSACard.com.
"This is the only card in any country that allows the holder
unlimited access to dozens of top attractions in multiple
destination cities, and includes the flexibility to be used over
the course of a year," said Cecilia Dahl, president of Smart
Destinations. "Building on the Go Boston Card and its sister
products, we achieved the critical mass needed to create a card
that works universally among all our markets. As a result, the
Go USA Card is the only card that lets consumers 'day hop' and
'city hop' across the U.S., with all admissions fully pre-paid.
Plus, with dozens of attractions in each market, travelers
individualize the experience based on personal interests."
"In theory, someone who travels a great deal could use a
seven-day Card one day in every city in which we operate," notes
Dahl. The numbers of attractions participating include: more
than 60 in New England; 50 in San Francisco and the region,
including a dozen in Wine Country; 70 in Orlando, Miami and
across central and southern Florida. There are 35 in San Diego,
30 in Seattle, more than 25 in Chicago, and some 30 to start
each in Los Angeles and Hawaii. Card holders are able to pick up
free, full-color Guidebooks for cities they visit at several
locations in each city. Guidebooks include descriptions of
attractions, maps and general information, plus details on
additional savings possible on shopping, dining and services.
A Great Gift Choice - Whether for Corporate or Personal Giving
As a gift item, no other product offers the same choice,
flexibility and value - either as a personal gift to friends and
family or as a corporate gift to employees, customers and
business partners. Smart Destinations received an enthusiastic
reception from HR and marketing professionals, as well from as
wholesalers of incentive merchandise, when it unveiled the Card
last month at the major premium and incentive conference, the
Motivation Show in Chicago. Tangible awards such as travel,
tickets to leisure activities and merchandise have proven to be
the most popular motivators for customers and employees, and the
Go USA Card is an innovative, cost-effective way to give the
gift of time well-spent. Go USA Cards can be purchased online at
