Digital Newspaper Delivery for Hospitality Guests

The NewspaperDirect service delivers newspapers to readers in a hotel or other hospitality establishments. The service enables guests to read their home newspaper on the date of issue, exactly like any copy bought at a newsstand, but in an 11 ×17 (A3) size with resolution exceeding that of standard newsstand copies. According to the service provider, this service can reinforce guest loyalty by providing them with a distinctive guest amenity, as well as minimize costs for hospitality facilities by ensuring printing is only done as requested.

The service provider is partnering with hotels and hospitality companies around the world to provide global distribution of their service. Distribution partners of the service provide guests with complete printed copies of a wide range of international daily newspapers. When the service is fully deployed, the service provider will offer virtually any newspaper in the world from a small town daily to the major international newspapers.

This service integrates into existing hotel property management systems, automating the ordering process, and minimizing back-office processing. In addition, the provider supplies all hardware, software, print supplies, and maintenance. Hotels only pay for each newspaper copy printed. Hotels can charge their guests for their newspapers, thereby generating a source of incremental revenue.
