No Keycard Needed: I Used Apple Wallet at Harrah’s Las Vegas
I just opened my hotel room at Harrah’s Las Vegas using Apple’s iPhone, then tried it again with the Apple Watch, and yeah, I’m into this.
My friends at Virdee told me about their room key in Apple Wallet and I had to try it. I checked in, added the key, got my room number, walked to the door, tapped the iPhone, and I was in.
Then I tried it again with the Apple Watch. Boom. Same thing.
No plastic keycard. No app hassle. No sad walk back to the front desk because the key vanished, failed, or somehow died in my pocket.
Virdee uses NFC, so it’s just tap and go.
This is the kind of hotel tech I can get behind because guests don’t have to think about it.
It just works. Learn more at virdee.ai.
