Bestway is helping retailers attract more footfall into their stores through a new partnership with Airbnb key collection company KeyNest.

As part of the new relationship, those who have rented an Airbnb hotel near a participating shop can collect their keys from the store. Online company Airbnb specialises in the rental of accommodation for people on vacation or on business trips. The accommodation is not a standard hotel, and is instead either a flat or house.

Bestway retailers who participate in the scheme hold the keys in their shop. To give the Airbnb key to the customer, the retailer must ask for a collection code and approve the handover by either scanning a keyfob or entering another code.

Commenting on the partnership, Bestway Retail head of trials Phil Turner, said: “It’s great that Bestway Retail have partnered with KeyNest, who are a great company holding Airbnb keys for collection, which brings in high value basket spend customers to our stores.”
