Mission Statement: PhoneKey

Introduction

Key-entry systems in the lodging industry took an enormous leap forward in the 1990s with the introduction of the disposable paper/plastic key. PhoneKey will provide the next leap forward.

The mission of PhoneKey is to:

Enable you to check-in to a hotel/motel/inn without having to go to the main desk to obtain your key.
Enable you enter your room using your cellular phone.
Enable you to give a (time-stamped) copy of your room key to friends, family members etc...

Given our history, Lodgic is ideally suited to design, develop and market PhoneKey.
