Case Study: Waypoint Network builds recurring revenue for college athletics with Access Development

Waypoint Network launches a NIL-powered travel platform with Access Development's 850,000+ hotel network

Waypoint Network, a fan-powered travel and fundraising platform, faced the challenge of quickly launching a reliable travel booking portal to generate new revenue streams for university athletic programs. They needed a robust solution after an attempt to build a proprietary platform internally failed to meet scope and timeline promises. They partnered with Access Development to implement its established travel and discount service.

Access Development provided a deeply established travel platform backed by four decades of experience and a massive network of hotels and theme parks. This reliable foundation allowed Waypoint to focus on signing school partners and driving fan engagement through multi-channel marketing. The partnership successfully created a network of school-branded portals that turn existing fan travel spending into a recurring and much-needed revenue source for college athletics.
