The story
Flash Pack is a UK-based premium adventure travel company built around solo travelers in their 30s and 40s, expanded to 45-59 cohort. The business model is direct-to-consumer booking of curated group trips across 70+ destinations, with embedded finance limited to checkout payments (multi-currency cards + wallets), in-house installment plans, and customer-arranged travel insurance. They explicitly outsource insurance to the customer (mandatory but not provided), and rely on Airwallex as their payment/FX backbone.
