WORLDHOTELS adds epayment

Wirecard is supplementing the reservation system of WORLDHOTELS for customers who wish to take advantage of the new advance purchase offer WORLDHOTELS.get it now. The advance purchase product grants guests overnight accommodation at reduced prices and is available for online bookings via worldhotels.com. Payment is made directly by credit card when a reservation is booked. Payment is secured by the risk management system developed by Wirecard.

WORLDHOTELS.get it now is a product that enhances the hoteliers planning certainty in terms of overnight accommodations and sales, since cancellations and modifications are effectively eliminated. Guests who already know well in advance what they want to book will be able to benefit from reduced room rates.

“Wirecard AG’s high level of competence and internationality in the hotel sector were decisive criteria for us in choosing the company as our partner for this innovative online product”, says Claudia Hammerstein, VP Operations of WORLDHOTELS. “For the hotel industry a flexible and secure payment system is highly important. Global Players like WORLDHOTELS are increasingly relying on ePayment systems with a global reach, which allow for different payment methods and currencies to be conveniently synchronized.”

“More and more tourism operators are opting for Wirecard due to the particular flexibility required by the fast-growing tourism market. To us, tourism is one of the core industries,” says Jörg Möller, Wirecard AG.
