In a leap forward for contactless payment solutions within the travel and hospitality sector, Softpay has announced its partnership with Visit Group, a digital ecosystem for the tourism industry. This collaboration is set to redefine how payments are made, offering seamless, contactless, and innovative payment options to guests and partners across the globe.
Making payments more easily accessible
Visit Group, with its extensive delivery of mission-critical software to various segments, including theme parks, ski resorts, museums, ferry operators, day tours, and hotels, has been at the forefront of digitalising tourism. By integrating Softpay’s tap-to-phone solution, Visit Group will enhance its offering, allowing for a more flexible, efficient, and modern payment experience, transforming any mobile device into a payment terminal.
This partnership is rooted in shared values and a mutual commitment to innovation. Both companies recognise the importance of providing an ecosystem that supports smooth payment transactions without the need for physical terminals. With tap-to-phone solution, businesses can easily add mobile payment options to their existing systems, facilitating a more streamlined process for in-destination sales, including transportation, amusement parks, restaurants, and more.
Softpay supports multiple acquirers and card schemes, including VISA, Mastercard, Dankort, BankAxept, Discover, Diners Club International, and AMEX, as well as digital wallets like Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay. This versatile range of payment options not only provides businesses with a broader scope to choose from but also enhances customer convenience by accommodating their preferred payment methods. Softpay enables its partners to remain agile, offering an easy way to tap into an existing payment network without the need to change acquirers or banks.
Officials from Sofpay stated they are happy to partner with Visit Group to bring their tap-to-phone payment solution to the travel and hospitality industry. This partnership is about more than just technology. It's about creating a better, more convenient, and safer payment experience for travellers around the world.
