Ingenico TravelHub opens up new payments routes for travel companies

Ingenico�s TravelHub enables travel companies to easily connect to payment capabilities in fast growing markets, increasing conversion and online revenue

 

AMSTERDAM,
NETHERLANDS - Media OutReach - 30 July 2019 - Ingenico Group (Euronext: FR0000125346 – ING), the global leader in
seamless payment has launched TravelHub (http://www.ingenico.com/travelhub), a solution built to connect travel companies with
Ingenico’s global end-to-end payment processing capabilities and regional
gateways across Asia, Latin America and Europe.

TravelHub allows travel companies to
easily access more than 150 payment methods — including credit cards and
alternative payment solutions – and currency options relevant for their
customers. It offers smart transaction routing capabilities across all payment platforms, improving
conversion rates and, as a result, increasing revenue from online travel sales.

 

Ingenico’s TravelHub offers a simple
direct connection to global payment capabilities, as well as integration with the
leading airline global distribution systems (GDS), such as Amadeus, Sabre and
Navitaire, and hotels’ property management systems (PMS). This helps travel
businesses tackle the complexity of managing multiple systems, payment service
providers (PSPs) and acquirers.

 

The sophisticated solution marks
Ingenico’s increased focus on travel, an industry where it already celebrates a strong portfolio and a long history of working with
some of the world’s most famous airlines, hotels and online travel agents (OTAs).
It is built by a dedicated team of seasoned professionals from the travel
payments industry, and this combination of technology and expertise positions Ingenico  to help travel companies grow and expand
globally. 

 

Kevin Weber,
Chief Projects Officer and Chief Information Officer at Viva Air, who has been using TravelHub
already, said: “Ingenico’s TravelHub helped us to increase authorization rates
and revenue significantly, and supported our expansion to new countries.”

 

Gabriel de
Montessus, SVP Global Online for Ingenico Group, said: “We are very proud to be
launching TravelHub, a state of the art solution that helps travel companies
increase revenue from online channels. TravelHub combines the global reach of
Ingenico’s online payment platforms that can now be accessed with a simple
connection.”

 

Eric
Liebman, Global Head of Travel at Ingenico ePayments, said: “Online travel
businesses are looking to navigate the complex technology ecosystem while
growing quickly in a very competitive space. TravelHub helps travel companies
provide the best digital customer experience,
offering payment methods and currencies travellers want to pay with.”

 

As the solution continues
to gain popularity among travel businesses, ongoing developments will be made to
add new travel technology connections and improve direct connections, making it
easier to access new markets.
