Jovago.com now features Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa translations offering users a chance to learn featured Nigerian local languages interactively and increases the ease with which hotel rooms are booked via the mobile app and website in three simple steps.
The company which marked its second year celebration activities with the grand launch of its Android mobile application, ‘Hotels Booking’, in over 40 countries around the world, provides customers who visit the website the convenience of book hotels in their native dialects at the click of a button.
Speaking on the success of the launch, Marek Zmyslowski, Managing Director, Jovago Nigeria said, “Our core mission at Jovago right now is to simplify the way customers use the internet to engage in online transactions which is why we are excited to introduce the local language translations. This way booking hotels becomes fun and quicker and we preserve Nigerian culture for the younger generation.”
With Nigeria recording a 200-percent increase in internet users between 2009 and 2013, market observers are of the view that the full-scale introduction of easy-access facilities such as the local language translation service by Jovago across the country will drive the wider adoption of digital services.
A survey carried out by the group found that 92 per cent of Nigerians who booked hotel on Jovago were satisfied with the speed of the booking experience.
