Klook strategic travel and payment partnerships
Overview
Klook, an Asia Pacific experiences platform, has entered into strategic partnerships with major payment providers to support the growing trend of experience-led travel.
In August 2026, Klook signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Mastercard to enhance consumer travel experiences in the Asia Pacific region. The collaboration focuses on increasing cardholder value and advancing innovative payment experiences, responding to research showing that many travelers prioritize unique events and specific activities over traditional locations.
In September 2026, Klook expanded these efforts by signing a Memorandum of Understanding with Visa. This partnership specifically targets six Southeast Asian markets: Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Vietnam. The initiative integrates Klook’s ecosystem with Visa’s network through joint creator programs and cardholder offers, addressing data indicating that 37% of Asia-Pacific respondents plan trips around unique local experiences.
