NextTrip Expands Travel Offerings Through Strategic Integration with Nuitée

Integration Adds Vacation Rentals and Complements NextTrip's PayDlay Installment Program

SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO / ACCESS Newswire / May 13, 2025 / NextTrip, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTRP) ("NextTrip," "we," "our," or the "Company"), a technology-forward travel company redefining how people discover, plan, and book travel, today announced a strategic partnership with Nuitée, a premier global hotel API provider. Through this collaboration, NextTrip is strategically integrating Nuitée's extensive lodging portfolio, featuring up to 1.5 million properties, into its travel booking platform.

This initiative reflects a tactical expansion of our lodging offerings, aligning with our broader goal of strengthening our presence in the vacation home and short-term rental markets, while also enhancing hotel and resort inventory. These accommodations are a natural fit with our proprietary PayDlay product, which enables consumers to book vacations with flexible installment payments.

NextTrip's technology team has spent several months integrating this extensive inventory into the PayDlay platform. With the integration complete, we are now positioned to begin marketing a seamless, installment-based booking experience across more than 1 million properties, empowering travelers to book now and pay over time, without credit checks or hidden fees.

By combining Nuitée's diverse lodging options, including vacation homes, apartments, and resort-style rentals with the PayDlay payment solution, NextTrip is delivering a more flexible, accessible, and consumer-centric approach to travel planning.

"This partnership is a strategic step forward as we continue to roll out our PayDlay program across our platform," said Bill Kerby, CEO of NextTrip. "By pairing Nuitée's exceptional hotel and vacation rental inventory with our self-funded, flexible payment solution, we are enhancing the overall product experience and removing common financial barriers that prevent people from booking their ideal trip. It's a major win for traveler accessibility and a clear differentiator for NextTrip in the market."

Leyla Allahverdiyeva, SVP Sales of Nuitée, also commented on the strategic alignment saying, "Nuitée is dedicated to optimizing the travel booking experience through cutting-edge technology and superior service.
