SKIDATA has launched its iSkiPass application that enables users to quickly and securely buy a ski pass from their iPhone. The company says its solution is the first ski pass reservation app for the iPhone. It is immediately available on the App Store under iSkiPass, and will soon be accessible on other mobile platforms.
Using iSkiPas, users can buy their ski pass from their iPhone, load it onto an RFID card a Keycard or a Swatch Snowpass and use this card to directly access all ski lifts.
During the first phase of the launch and until the end of the season, several leading ski resorts in the Swiss Alps are selling ski passes (valid for up to three days) on the iSkiPass app. To use the service, you need to download the iSkiPass app and enter your personal data along with the number of cards needed. Buying one or several ski passes takes only a few seconds. As soon as the application delivers the confirmation number, access to the ski resort lifts is authorized.
iSkyPass will be available worldwide from the start of the 2010-2011 winter season.
