The Hopper platform serves hundreds of millions of travelers globally and continues to capture market share around the world. Ranked the third largest online travel agency in North America, the Hopper app has been downloaded over 120 million times and has become largely popular among younger travelers - with 70% of its users being Gen Z and millennials.

In 2023, over 1.3 billion trips were planned through the Hopper app and our HTS partnerships. Our fintech products - including Price Freeze, Flexibility for Any Reason and Flight Disruption Assistance - have exceptionally strong CSAT because the terms are always clear, and customers receive instant, no-questions-asked resolutions. Almost 30% of our app customers purchase at least one fintech product when making a booking; and consumers are 1.6x more likely to repurchase if they add fintech to their booking vs if they booked just travel. Given the success of its fintech products, Hopper launched a B2B initiative, HTS (Hopper Technology Solutions), which represents more than 50% of the business. Through HTS, any travel provider (airlines, hotels, banks, travel agencies, etc.) can integrate and seamlessly distribute Hopper's fintech or travel inventory on their direct channels. As its first HTS partnership, the company partnered with Capital One to co-develop Capital One Travel, a new travel portal designed specifically for cardholders. Other HTS partners include Air Canada, Uber, CommBank, Nubank, Flair Airlines with many more in the pipeline. Featured in Apple's Best of the App Store list of Essential Travel Apps in 2023 and recognized by the likes of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies, Hopper has been downloaded over 120 million times and continues to have millions of new installs each month.
