ushering in a new age of travel
Traditional travel products have not dramatically changed since the inception of popular booking platforms such as Booking.com and Airbnb, and therefore lack the flexibility and variety that travellers have come to expect. They tend to lock members into rigid, escalating annual costs & levies, benefits that devalue over time, and unnecessary red tape when wanting to exit.
This is where the Pangolin Club changes the game.
We have converted a travel membership into a tradable alternative investment by linking it to an NFT.
Pangolin Club members enjoy exclusive member rates, access to a rapidly expanding portfolio of premium properties, and the ability to easily exit by selling their NFT through an NFT marketplace such as OpenSea.
This is the first time that tangible, immediate travel benefits and privileges are being attached to tradeable, transferrable digital assets in this way by a South African company.
Why an NFT collection as a travel membership?
Traditional travel products have commonly suffered from high oversubscription rates, lack of availability, inflexible fixed costs, and difficulty in exiting from them.
However, the Pangolin Club is different.
By ensuring that membership to the club is exclusively available to only 111 members, and utilising NFTs as proof of membership, the Pangolin Club eliminates all of the challenges above and transforms the membership into an exclusively tradable, yet easily transferrable asset. This helps members capture more value from their membership.
In this way, should a member choose to exit from the club, they can simply list their NFT for sale on a popular NFT marketplace like OpenSea, set their price and sell it.
The Pangolin Club provides an elite group of members with real-life utility that allows them to extract tangible value from being part of one of the world’s most innovative travel clubs.

What is the Significance of the Pangolin?
When you mint a Pangolin Collection NFT you get a completely unique piece of digital art that helps raise awareness of the world’s most trafficked mammal and one of Africa’s most endangered animals – the pangolin. Each piece of art, of which there are only 111 unique characters, is a tribute to all the known and documented survivors. It’s their story that has inspired this art collection. 2.5% of all NFT purchases will go to pangolin conservation so owners are actively contributing to one of South Africa’s largest conservation challenges.
