This week, Lloyds became the first UK bank to offer in-app travel booking thanks to Hopper’s AI-driven travel platform.
‘Lloyds Travel Booking’ enables users to book flights and accommodation within the bank’s mobile app, making it easier to manage trips and finances. With nearly a tenth of household spending going towards travel, this feature reflects how important holidays and travel experiences are for customers.

Leveraging Hopper’s technology, Lloyds can offer users peace of mind when booking travel with the following features:
- Best Price Guarantee: If a customer finds a better price within 24 hours of booking, Lloyds Travel will match the price.
- Price Prediction: For flights only, the service provides data-driven recommendations on the optimal time to book – or wait.
- Price Drop Protection: The service monitors flight bookings for 10 days and will credit customers if the price drops after booking.
Dakota Smith, President and Co-Founder, Hopper said:
“Modern financial institutions are looking for ways to deepen engagement. End-to-end travel portals from Hopper Technology Solutions help partners broaden their product offerings. We are thrilled to partner with Lloyds to bring an enhanced travel booking experience to consumers in the UK.”
This collaboration shifts the centre of travel booking, incorporating the convenience and safety of financial management with smart, AI-powered travel planning, all under one app.
