Amadeus-Worldpay Partnership Further Simplifies Travel Payments

Amadeus’ travel customers to accept more payment types from travelers in more countries and in more currencies

Amadeus and Worldpay, a global leader in payment processing, risk management and alternative payments, recently announced a global agreement to integrate Worldpay’s extensive payment services into the Amadeus Payment Platform (APP).

Amadeus’ travel customers will be able to offer more payment choice to their travelers, therefore enhancing the consumer experience, as they can now accept more payments in more countries and in more currencies through Worldpay’s leading range of payment solutions.

As authorization is integrated into the ticketing and selling flow, the Amadeus Payment Platform ensures a fast and easy payment process to all its users. Furthermore, enhanced transaction information facilitates the payment reconciliation.

The APP also offers travel tailored functionalities that provide a secure payment environment to both travelers and travel providers. A single connection to the APP gives access to a multitude of payment options, streamlining the payment process as it eliminates the need to integrate additional payment providers.

“Worldpay will help us to fulfill our customers’ payment needs across the globe through a simple payment experience offered to their travelers,” said Celia Pereiro, Head of Travel Payments at Amadeus.

“With our unique position at the travel and payments crossroads, we are confident that more and more travel providers will acknowledge the value of the APP as they discover a vast, growing range of payment alternatives.”

Amadeus and Worldpay are also working together to optimize the payment process, enhance the consumer experience and maximize transaction acceptance.
