Payment Solutions for Travel Agencies & Tour Operators

Secure deposits, reduce chargebacks and simplify multichannel payments.

Travel agencies and tour operators manage deposits, staged balances, extras and international payments. Manual processes, IVR systems and phone-based payments create friction, increase fraud risk and slow down collections.

SOTpay provides a PCI DSS compliant, multichannel payment platform designed for the travel industry.

Collect payments securely, improve conversion and reduce operational overhead.
