Brightline Launches First Loyalty Program with Antavo to Deliver More Rewards, More Often

In a thriving U.S. tourism market valued at over $800 billion, customer retention is more important than ever. Recognizing this, Brightline officially launches its new loyalty program, Brightline Rewards, powered by Antavo Loyalty Cloud. Launching today, the program offers a simple, flexible way for riders to earn and redeem points.

As the only privately owned and operated intercity passenger rail in the United States, Brightline continues to redefine travel through speed, comfort, and sustainability. From biodiesel-powered trains to supporting the use of solar power at stations, innovation is core to the experience — now reflected in the next generation of travel loyalty.

“Brightline’s new loyalty program, powered by Antavo, will elevate our guest and brand experience,” said Patrick Goddard, CEO of Brightline Florida. “We’re building a strong community of loyal riders by offering a truly rewarding experience. With Antavo’s advanced technology, we can deliver a seamless and scalable program that not only celebrates our current guests, but also lays the groundwork for future expansion and innovation.”

Brightline Rewards was designed for simplicity — no hurdles, just immediate value. And with a limited-time launch offer, there’s never been a better time to enroll.

Program Highlights:

• Launch Bonus: Introductory triple-point bonus on all qualifying purchases for rides booked and taken by June 3, 2025. 
• No Redemption Minimum: Use points as you earn them — every point counts
• Instant Access: Points post after travel and can be used on your next trip
• Digital Member Card: Powered by Antavo’s Wallet module

Brightline Rewards is built on Antavo’s enterprise-grade platform, allowing Brightline to customize the program to meet business needs and grow with its customer base. While the program strategy and design were developed by Brightline, Antavo’s technology enables its seamless delivery — including custom rules, configurations, and real-time integrations.

This launch reflects Brightline’s commitment to rewarding its most loyal guests while creating new reasons to ride. And with this limited-time opportunity, there’s never been a better moment to join.

“We are more than excited to work with Brightline. As a company with a remarkable eco-friendly approach to travel, they understand that the quality and impact of the journey matter just as much as reaching your destination. The same philosophy applies to the loyalty program experience in our field. Plus, there’s a magnitude of previously unexplored opportunities for innovation in the travel sector as well. We are happy to explore those, and to create a unique, engaging, and rewarding experience for Brightline’s customers.” – Attila Kecsmar, CEO & Co-founder of Antavo
