Reactivation for vacation club members

Find what moves each member. Bring them back.

Every dormant member has a reason to travel again: nights about to expire, the kids' school break, a beach they haven't tried, a fare that just dropped from their city. Stoop learns that reason for each member and, the moment it appears, sends one complete trip on the channel that member answers.

The dormant member

A member who stops traveling stops seeing what the membership is worth.

266,100
club nights they are not using
35%
of those nights sit with members away 18 months or more

The gap

A member who travels and a member who doesn't head in opposite directions.

Every month away makes a dormant member likelier to stop paying, cancel or ask for a refund. A member who comes back renews, sees what the membership is worth, and is the member who buys the upgrade. Moving one member across that gap is worth more than the trip itself.

Months since the last stayThe member's value to the clubA tripThe gapTravels again: toward renewal and upgradeStays dormant: toward cancellation
Illustrative. A pilot measures both paths on the club's own members.

The dormant member

  • Cancellation risk grows every month away
  • Unused nights expire and feel like money lost
  • Maintenance fees get harder to justify

The member who travels

  • Renews and keeps paying
  • Uses the nights the club already sold
  • Is the one who buys more points or a higher tier

How it works

Every member moves for a different reason.

  1. WhatsApp message asking a member about her next family trip

    01Learn the reason

    Ask before they drift.

    At month seven, before anything is lost, a message with no price asks about the next trip. "Spring break, with the kids, somewhere with a kids club" becomes the incentive Stoop watches for, and her retention risk drops.

  2. WhatsApp offer with a member's question answered

    02The incentive appears

    When their reason shows up, move.

    A fare drops from the member's own airport on dates that fit their family, with rooms open at the resort they rated five stars. Stoop matches every member that incentive fits, ranks them by who is likeliest to come back, and writes each one a trip.

  3. Offer page for a family of four at $2,057 with club nights shown as stars

    03Their own nights

    Nights about to expire, put to use.

    The trip is priced with the nights the member already owns, drawn down on screen, so the membership they pay for is the reason to go. Stay, flights and taxes in one price; the number shown is the number paid.

  4. Live transcript of an AI call offering the club's concierge

    04A person with context

    Some members move for a person.

    Members away two years or more have questions a person should answer. The AI call offers one at any point, and the concierge takes over with everything already said, so the member never repeats a thing.

  5. Post-stay WhatsApp offering the same week next year

    05The next reason

    Next year starts two days after checkout.

    The club thanks the member, asks for a rating and offers the same week next year, while the trip is still the reason. A no works the same way: not now, with a when and a where, becomes the next incentive to watch.

Audiences

One search, a different trip for every audience.

Stoop searches more than 300 airlines and online travel agencies around the clock for the best opportunity on every route, from each member's home airport. Each audience gets its offer in its own language and currency, timed to its occasion, with a partner's gift waiting in the room.

The engine

It learns what moves each member, and shows its work.

Stoop console: a fare drop on Dallas to Cancún matches 1,252 members
  • 01

    Member signals

    Months away, unopened mail, nights about to expire, household and favorite resort score each member's retention risk.

  • 02

    Stated reasons

    What a member says (when, with whom, where) is saved and watched for, so the next offer answers it.

  • 03

    Incentive radar

    Searches more than 300 airlines and online travel agencies on every route, alongside open rooms and expiring balances, matched against every dormant member at once.

  • 04

    Channel model

    Learns which channel each member answers: email, WhatsApp, SMS or an AI call.

  • 05

    A no becomes data

    Not now, with a when and a where, sets a quiet period and shapes the next offer.

  • 06

    Exit first

    A booking, an upcoming stay or an opt-out stops every promo, including ones already queued.

Messaging efficiency

Fewer messages, each one on the channel that member answers.

Blasting every member on every channel burns trust and budget. Stoop learns each member's channel, sends one complete trip when their reason appears, and stops the moment they book or say not now.

  • One channel per member, learned from what they answer
  • Contact caps and quiet periods after a no
  • A booking stops every promo, even ones already queued
  • The cost of every message counted against what it brought back
Bookings per message, by channel
  • WhatsApp2.4%
  • Email1.4%
  • AI call1.1%
  • SMS1.1%

Results

Members brought back, measured against members who got nothing.

A stable 10% of dormant members is held out and never receives a promo. The lift is the difference, week by week: the members who came back because Stoop found their reason.

Partners

Every trip is a place to sell what members want at the destination.

Consumer brands, tour operators and local activities sell inside the same offer the member is already booking. The club earns a commission on each one, and the member gets a better trip without a second checkout.

  • Spirits and tastingsA tequila or mezcal tasting in the room or at the bar.
  • Wellness and spaMassages, temazcal and yoga, booked with the stay.
  • Beauty and retailBrands that share the club's audience, delivered to the room.
  • Tours and parksSnorkel trips, cenotes and theme parks from local operators.
  • TransfersA private ride from the airport, priced in the same total.

In each club's demo, its real partners appear by name.
