We are very excited to announce the first batch of our brand new ELITE High End Exclusive NFC Membership cards are in production and will be with us soon. Once in our hands, we will personally mail these to each client in ELITE. ELITE Clients should expect these sometime in December.

These stylish modern cards will be exclusive to our ELITE Annual Membership Clients, based on 1 per ELITE Household, Family, or Solo ELITE Account. These new cards are made of metal, in a black brushed style, as shown above. They will feature NFC swipe technology. These are more than just a high end business card, they are your membership card in ELITE. Each card will be personalized with your name, and if couple/married will read Mr. & Mrs., or have both names.

Scanning/Swiping the card over your phone, will pull up a private profile with Mr. Travel Agent, for each individual ELITE Client. ELITE Clients will be able to easily track and keep updated with their ELITE Membership Status, and view their current ELITE Miles earned, redeemed, and balances. ELITE Clients will no longer need to go into the agency mobile app, and look for their ELITE Account Status.

In addition ELITE Clients will have direct access to utilize a new referral program launching in 2026, that will allow them to pass along the agency details instantly using their card, when ELITE clients refer clients in this manner by NFC, we will be able to see the E-referral and track who it came from, rewarding both the referral client, and the the referrer!

The card will have two access portions

1.) The agency itself accessible via the profile pull up with agency features and links.

2.) The ELITE Clients profile. Within, ELITE clients will have direct access to our new Client Access Portal, to search & reserve directly by clicking a profile link.

Portions of content on mrtravelagent.net, will be directly accessible in the card holders profile.

Of course this offers yet another form of direct communication between us and the client at all times.

ELITE has been growing since we launched it in 2023, and as of year end 2025, 20% of our clients who traveled in 2025 either joined/renewed/upgraded into ELITE. Savvy Luxury Travel Clients are discovering ELITE, and realizing it's benefits. We are always looking for ways to improve ELITE, and test little enhancements to the program annually.

The ELITE card will require clients to maintain ELITE Membership annually for their card profile to remain active. If an ELITE Client does not renew membership the card is still theirs forever, but we will have to terminate their ELITE Profile within the card. The NFC tech, and agency profile features will remain accessible to all card holders, they will just no longer be able to view ELITE status/miles account features once membership is cancelled. They would be reverted to the VIP Club within agency mobile app instead.

New to our agency, and not aware of ELITE?

ELITE is our annual membership tier of the VIP Club. Once in ELITE nearly all agency curation charges are eliminated and you have priority access to Agency Services, and Unlimited Travel Planning throughout membership. In addition your earn our internal agency mileage program at a rate 100% better than the VIP Club. Those miles help ELITE Clients maintain ELITE annually at a reduced rate, or even fully earn renewal at no cost. In 2025 we launched the 'ELITE for Life: Roadmap', another feature enhancement, where maintaining ELITE for 5 consective years, will earn the client ELITE for Life in year 6. We already have our clients on this journey with us.

While the VIP Club tier itself is free and earns clients miles at a lower rate, and offers clients the ability to upgrade/earn their way into ELITE.

ELITE is open invite to all clients, but it's better suited to those well traveled, higher end, and who tends to travel at least 2-3 times internationally p/year, to make the best use of it's features. However a highend client traveling once a year may also see just the agency mileage benefits of ELITE as worthy to join.

Now with the launch of our ELITE Metal Membership NFC Card, we add another exclusive VIP benefit of ELITE.

We offer joint accounts, solo accounts, family accounts for ELITE as well.
