Webuy Launches AI Agent-Assisted Smart Travel Card to Enhance Connected Travel Experience
Singapore, July 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Webuy Global Ltd (NASDAQ:WBUY) ("Webuy" or the "Company"), a technology-driven platform transforming travel services and social commerce across Southeast Asia, today announced the launch of its AI Agent-Assisted Smart Travel Card, a new travel technology initiative designed to support travelers across the full journey — from pre-departure preparation and payment to transportation, destination experiences and post-trip engagement.
The initiative applies AI Agent capabilities to selected travel workflows by combining AI-assisted decision-making, structured journey context, location-based detection, rules-based workflows and backend system integrations to provide more connected and context-aware travel services.
A customer journey can span weeks or months and involve numerous interactions, including preparation, transportation, itinerary management and destination services. Today, many of these interactions remain fragmented across messages, documents, applications and offline services.
Webuy’s Smart Travel Card is designed to bring these interactions together.
Combining an NFC-enabled physical card with a personalized H5 interface, the platform provides travelers with a continuous digital connection throughout the journey without requiring a separate application.
The current H5 interface provides access to journey information, meeting-point guidance, direct guide contact, daily itineraries, bilingual support and location-based AI attraction commentary.
As one example of its AI Agent-assisted functionality, the Smart Travel Card uses location and itinerary context to determine when a traveler is within approximately 300 meters of a relevant attraction. The system then automatically displays corresponding attraction information and AI-assisted audio commentary through the H5 interface, allowing the traveler to choose whether to play the audio content.By connecting more of the customer journey through a single platform, Webuy believes it may be able to build a more continuous understanding of how travelers interact with its products and services.
Webuy believes this may support a long-term improvement cycle for the travel business: as more customers use the platform, the Company may gain deeper insights into traveler needs; those insights may help improve its AI Agents and products; and better experiences may support stronger engagement, referrals and repeat business.
"Our Smart Travel Card is designed to help understand where the traveler is in the journey and support timely, relevant services from Webuy. For example, when a traveler enters the proximity of a relevant attraction, the system can evaluate the traveler’s location and journey context and automatically provide corresponding attraction information and AI-assisted commentary. We believe this can improve the travel experience by supporting a more connected and personalized journey from beginning to end. Just as importantly, it may help strengthen the data and service feedback loop within our travel business. As our customer base grows, the insights generated through these interactions may help us improve our AI Agents, products and services, supporting stronger engagement, referrals and repeat business over time," said Vincent Xue, Chief Executive Officer of Webuy Global Ltd.
The initiative forms part of Webuy’s broader strategy to deploy AI Agents across its travel operations and build a more connected and scalable technology-driven travel business.
