Fully integrated Amadeus Payment offers a full suite of solutions for airline payment processing, helping merchants improve conversion rate, ensure revenue protection, and reduce costs. Amadeus Payment offers payment transactions management for sales performed across all channels on behalf of an airline merchant. With Amadeus Payment, the payment processing is fully integrated within the airline’s selling flow and across all systems, leading to an enriched reporting for accounting systems. The cross referencing between sales, payment and ticketing data further facilitates reporting, tracking and dispute management.

Today, airline merchants have to deal with the steady increase in electronic payments, the wide range of payment methods (card, e-Wallet, bank transfer‌), not to mention the large number of sales channels. This implies integrating different and complex types of solutions to validate payments, combat fraud and enable fund collection, all of this within the regulations and standards across a complex and fragmented payment industry.

Focusing on profitability Amadeus Payment allows the airline to protect revenue via a number of sophisticated checks, including 3D secure for web payments and a full fraud prevention module that checks both the booking and payment data. This reduces the number of disputes and therefore, the volume of chargebacks. Moreover the integrated capture helps minimize mistakes and accelerate cash-flows. Airlines also benefit from a significant reduction in both transaction and merchant fees, thanks to direct connectivity to the banks and to sophisticated fraud prevention solution. Finally, it allows airlines to reduce their cost by offering an efficient payment reporting, saving time in the back office processing.
