The newest Selina location offers guests incredible glamping in the sand dunes of Morocco with traditional Selina offerings like a night club, pool, and Coworking space.

Corporate News
Selina Hospitality to go Public
Selina Hospitality, the company behind the Selina hotel chain and Colive program announced that it will be going public.
The finance move will secure $147.5M in financing for the company to assist its growth and adaptation to the growing digital nomads landscape geared towards Gen Z and Millennial remote workers.
Selina Hospitality will be released on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the company is expected to value at $1.2B.
Selina Hospitality is Trying Out a Visa Loyalty Card
The Selina hospitality brand has been busy lately.
In addition to the announcement to go public, the company has been testing out a Selina Hotel Visa card.
The card will be a loyalty card, in addition to a payment method, where card holders can earn points for use on future stays as well as cash back.
Keeping their prime demographics of Gen Z and Millennial in mind, the Selina card is a debit card instead of a credit card and is managed by First International Bank.
For Selina locations that currently offer the card to guests, guests receive a $25 reward at sign up in addition to their loyalty points.
The company’s IPO is taking precedence over the card’s roll out, so the earliest the card is expecting to be amiable globally is late 2022.
