In a major leap forward for contactless payment solutions in the travel and hospitality sector, tap-to-pay solutions provider Softpay is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Visit Group, a comprehensive digital ecosystem for the tourism industry . This collaboration aims to redefine how payments are made, offering seamless, contactless and innovative payment options to guests and partners around the world.
Visit Group has been at the forefront of the digitalization of tourism, providing a wide range of mission-critical software for a variety of sectors including theme parks, ski resorts, museums, ferry companies, day tours, and hotels. By integrating the Softpay tap-to-phone solution, Visit Group can enhance its services and enable a more flexible, efficient and modern payment experience, easily turning any mobile device into a payment terminal.
This partnership is rooted in shared values and a mutual commitment to innovation. Both companies recognize the importance of providing an ecosystem that supports frictionless payment transactions without the need for physical terminals. Tap-to-phone solutions allow businesses to easily add mobile payment options to their existing systems, making the sales process more streamlined and convenient at destinations like transportation, amusement parks, and restaurants. .
Softpay supports multiple acquirers and card schemes including VISA, Mastercard, Dankort, BankAxept, Discover, Diners Club International, and AMEX, as well as digital wallets such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay. This variety of payment options not only gives businesses more choice, but also increases convenience for customers by supporting their preferred payment method. Softpay allows partners to remain agile and provides an easy way to leverage existing payment networks without the need to change acquirers or banks.
“We are pleased to partner with Visit Group to bring our tap-to-phone payment solutions to the travel and hospitality industry,” said Jacob Eisen, co-founder of Softpay. “This partnership is about more than just technology. It's about creating a better, more convenient and more secure payment experience for travelers around the world.”
