Cloud-native spa and leisure management platform TRYBE has teamed up with hospitality data powerhouse IRECKONU—and the result could be one of the most meaningful steps yet toward truly unified guest experiences. The new integration connects every booking, preference, and interaction from TRYBE directly into IRECKONU’s Customer Data Platform (CDP), giving hotels a much deeper, richer understanding of their guests across spa, leisure, rooms, and F&B.

This isn’t just another tech partnership announcement. It’s a signal of where hospitality is heading: a world where guest journeys are finally connected, not scattered across siloed systems.

“TRYBE and IRECKONU’s integration is streamlining essential operations and empowering hotels to deliver exceptional guest experiences from one easy-to-access platform. As guest expectations evolve, our integration helps the hospitality industry stay innovative, efficient, and competitive,” said Ricky Daniels, Co-Founder of TRYBE.

Bringing Spa and Leisure Data Into the Heart of the Guest Profile

The core of this integration is data — the kind hotels have always had, but rarely unified.

TRYBE has built its reputation by making spa, leisure, activities, and wellness bookings as smooth as accommodation reservations. Guests can browse availability, book treatments, manage appointments, and pay online. Before this integration, most of that information lived separately from core hotel systems such as PMS, CRS, and F&B platforms.

IRECKONU connects those dots.

Every spa or leisure booking made via TRYBE now feeds into IRECKONU’s centralised guest profile, alongside room data, dining preferences, loyalty history, communication logs, and more. It creates a complete, 360-degree profile — finally showing hotels who their guests are, not just where they sleep.

And thanks to two-way, real-time data flows, hotels don’t just receive information — they can activate it.

Operators can build targeted upsell campaigns, tailor promotions to spa-loving guests, identify cross-selling opportunities, and personalise offers before, during, and after the stay. High-value guests who always book massages? They’ll now get relevant pre-arrival offers, reminders when treatment slots open, and curated packages that match their spending patterns.

This is personalisation that actually feels personal, not automated.

Removing Friction Behind the Scenes

The guest benefits are obvious — but what’s happening in the back office is just as important.

Before integrations like this existed, spa and leisure teams often worked in isolation. They dealt with double entries, manual updates, missed notes, lost preferences, or abandoned baskets. Any breakdown meant lost revenue and a less cohesive guest experience.

TRYBE and IRECKONU aim to eliminate that.

With real-time synchronisation, availability, bookings, cancellations, and guest details move seamlessly between the two platforms. Hotels reduce manual touches, cut out errors, and streamline team communication. Revenue management gains clearer insight, marketing teams get cleaner data, and front-of-house receives a unified view of each guest — no matter how many services that guest engages with.

Jan Jaap van Roon, CEO and Founder of IRECKONU, sees it as a major step forward:

“We’re thrilled to give hoteliers a truly unified view of their guests across the entire brand. By centralizing guest profiles from PMS, CRS, F&B, and now spa through Trybe’s powerful APIs, we enable hoteliers to drive personalized experiences to every guest. This integration is further proof of our commitment to the hospitality industry. We’re here to elevate the guest experience and our partnership with TRYBE makes that possible.”

Why This Matters Right Now

The timing of this partnership aligns with several industry-wide shifts:

• Wellness travel continues to surge—projected to reach $1.3 trillion by 2027 (source: Global Wellness Institute).
• Guests expect personalisation as a standard, not a luxury, according to Skift’s 2024 Hospitality Tech Outlook.
• Hotels are increasingly adopting cloud-native tech, replacing legacy systems that don’t communicate well.
• Ancillary revenue is becoming a core growth engine, especially as room-rate-driven growth stabilises post-pandemic.

TRYBE and IRECKONU’s integration directly taps into each of these trends, giving hotels not just tools but actionable intelligence.

What This Signals for the Future of Hospitality Tech

As strong as this partnership is, it also highlights the competitive landscape taking shape around unified guest experience platforms. Players like Shiji, Amadeus Hospitality, Oracle Hospitality, and Cendyn are pushing similar visions: break down data silos, centralise guest intelligence, and help hotels personalise efficiently at scale.

But TRYBE and IRECKONU bring something slightly different — a blend of deep operational capability (TRYBE) with a highly flexible, middleware-first CDP (IRECKONU). Most major hospitality tech vendors focus on rooms and loyalty first and wellness second. TRYBE flips that script by specializing in spa and leisure, a segment growing faster than rooms in many luxury and resort markets.

Compared with competitors like Zenoti (a strong spa platform) or Revinate (focused heavily on CRM and email), TRYBE and IRECKONU together offer a more integrated, cross-departmental ecosystem. They’re not just aligning marketing and rooms; they’re pulling leisure, wellness, and activities into the same personalized narrative—something few providers execute well at scale.

For hotels, this partnership isn’t just another integration update. It’s a blueprint for what modern hospitality technology should look like: unified, cloud-native, real-time, and built around the full guest journey, not just the booking.

Wellness, personalisation, and seamless digital journeys are defining the next era of travel. TRYBE and IRECKONU’s collaboration positions them right at the forefront of that shift—and hotels that embrace this kind of ecosystem will be the ones setting the pace for guest experience innovation in the years ahead.
