Paper Details Five Key Levers Driving the Transformation to Unlocking the Full Value of a Property While Creating Extraordinary Guest Experiences

AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Phunware, Inc. (“Phunware” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PHUN), today announced the release of its latest white paper, " From Browsing to Booking and Back Again ”, outlining a transformative strategy for the hospitality industry to increase ancillary revenue and elevate guest experiences through intelligent digital engagement.

The white paper highlights that 35% of guest spending takes place after check-in, representing an untapped $2+ million annual revenue opportunity for a 200-room property at 60% occupancy.

By transforming a property's static printed or electronic brochure into an interactive digital map with a real-time, always available concierge, resorts can capture attention at the moments that build loyalty and drive spending behavior. Properties now have the ability to unlock new revenue streams, optimize operations, and deliver frictionless experiences that build long-term loyalty.

"Hospitality has entered a new era where technology isn’t just an enhancement - it’s the foundation for unlocking the full value of a property while creating extraordinary guest experiences," said Jeremy Krol, Interim CEO of Phunware. "Our research shows that by meeting guests in the moments that matter, properties can dramatically increase engagement, satisfaction, and revenue - while gaining a sustainable competitive edge."

The white paper details five key levers driving this transformation: capturing guest attention on-site, unlocking post-check-in revenue, deploying precision engagement, increasing operational efficiency, and positioning properties for market leadership.
