Travel site features handpicked selections of luxury travels

Members receive 4% money back on every booking.

This startup curates vacation hotspots and provides the best deals, promising luxurious service as travelers book and enjoy their getaway.

ImpulseFlyer offers handpicked selections of luxury travels in some of the best locations in the Asia Pacific region.

Their online portal is an exclusive hub for luxury travel enthusiasts whom they say will only get the finest list of hotel offerings that promises their money’s worth.

“Not all luxury & boutique hotels are as you'd expect them to be. We take the homework out of figuring out the best places to stay through our careful curation, and at the same time we offer the best rates guaranteed” according to ImpulseFlyer co-founder Steven Gong.

Their members receive 4% money back on every booking they make which they can credit to future transactions. Their rates are all inclusive with real-time updates which they said ensures that their users get the best rates possible with no hidden charges.

Gong added that their company also has a concierge-like customer service and has additional benefits for VIP members such as complimentary upgrades and spa treatments.

Since its launch in June of 2011, the initially self-funded startup has raised its seed through various investors and has expanded and improved their company’s services. Apart from their online portal, members also can manage their bookings and access ImpulseFlyer through its iPhone app.

With hopes of expanding their current portfolio to a more global audience, Gong said that their eyes are set on adding packages from other parts of the world while still maintaining primary focus on Asia.

ImpulseFlyer seeks to improve their holistic luxury experience down from their booking services up to the minute their members are already spending their vacations. They aim to be hailed as the No. 1 luxury travel destination both on the web and on mobile.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.
