Who are we:

Airship is a SaaS company with a focus in hospitality. We’re a friendly bunch and enjoy what we do.  We have two platforms that help brands generate revenue & repeat footfall:

Airship (airship.co.uk) is a data driven loyalty engine specifically designed for hospitality operators. We bring together all the clients data feeds and provide marketing tools that drive an increase in footfall and customer spending, through automation and campaign tools. We have specific tools that help our clients understand and affect the visit frequency of their customers, which we call ‘Proof of Presence’.

Toggle (usetoggle.com) enables customers to generate pre-sold revenue through the sale of gifts, experiences and promotions. Launching in October 2018 and  quickly  becoming the default choice in the sector - with over 350 customers across 2,500+ locations.

Collectively, our platforms are used in over 5000 locations from larger operators such as Shepherd Neame, Village Hotels, Revolution Bars, Tortilla, and Roadchef through to smaller groups and independents, such as Junkyard Golf, The Alchemist, Incipio, and Nobu.
