STCK Stack Capital Group Inc

Stack Capital Group Inc., (TSX:STCK) is pleased to announce that Hopper, Inc. (“Hopper”), an existing portfolio holding, has announced a partnership with Sumitomo Mitsui Card Co., Ltd. (“SMCC”), the largest credit card issuer in Japan, owned by SMBC Group.

The partnership will see HTS (Hopper Technology Solutions) create and power the travel loyalty portal for SMCC, enabling its cardholders to easily book flights, accommodations, and car rentals, while saving money.

HTS’ industry-leading suite of flexible fintech products, along with its e-commerce platform, comprehensive travel agency, and deep understanding of data were all key factors which supported SMCC’s decision to partner. Moreover, SMCC believes that this new HTS-powered travel portal will not only increase loyalty among its existing customer base, but also attract new customers.

“An exciting new partnership – this time with SMCC, Japan’s largest credit card issuer,” said Jeff Parks, CEO of Stack Capital. “HTS started from scratch just a couple of years ago; today, HTS accounts for two-thirds of Hopper’s business, which is extremely impressive. Congratulations to the entire Hopper/HTS team.”
