Destination Marketing on Apps, Kiosks and Web
Mapzest connects visitors with everything a destination has to offer - businesses, attractions, accommodation, events and festivals - and gives destinations, LVEPs, BIDs and DMOs one real-time platform to market all of it.
Kiosk, Wayfinding, Mobile App, Digital Event Display and Visitor Guide...
One listing, distributed everywhere a visitor might actually be looking
A business or destination that lists on Mapzest doesn't just get an app listing - they get one profile, managed once, distributed automatically across multiple channels, including the Mapzest app, Mapzest Discover on the web, and physical kiosk and totem displays. That's exposure and a seamless journey across every channel a visitor might use to find you, from a phone in their pocket to a screen in the town centre, without managing a separate listing for each one.
Is Mapzest Suitable for me?
We're here to help businesses, attractions, accommodation, events, festivals, LVEPs, BIDs, DMOs, resorts, marinas and similar organisations
Businesses
Restaurants, cafes, shops and services, positioned exactly where and when visitors are deciding where to go.
Attractions
Museums, theme parks, nature reserves and everything in between, discoverable by the visitors already exploring nearby.
Accommodation
Hotels, guesthouses, campsites and holiday parks, found by visitors deciding where to base their stay.
Events
A live 'What's On' schedule pulled directly from the organisers running each one, never out of date.
Festivals
Entire festivals get their own dedicated guide, with every stallholder and performer on one map.
Offers
Offers and promotions land in the user's wallet to incentivise bookings and visits
A Regional Discovery Solution, Not Just a Business Directory
Built for whole destinations, not one listing at a time
Mapzest scales up as easily as it scales down. Local Visitor Economy Partnerships, Business Improvement Districts and Destination Management Organisations use it as a single regional platform covering every business, attraction and event across their area. Destinations with their own boundaries - a marina, a holiday resort, a country estate - get the same complete guide built around their own site. Whatever the shape of the destination, it's the same one real-time platform underneath.
- A single platform for LVEPs, BIDs and DMOs to market a whole destination
- Dedicated guides for marinas, holiday resorts and other bounded destinations
- Managed centrally, by individual businesses, or a mix of both
- The same live data across every channel, including the app, the web and a kiosk

Listings are managed by the people who know them the best - keeping everything real-time and relevant
