Payments for travel companies and holiday providers
Holidays are booked months ahead, paid for in instalments and rarely in person. Deposits, balances and changes all need to be easy for the customer and clear for you.
Sound familiar?
Where payments tend to get awkward.
- Deposits taken at booking, with balances due weeks or months later.
- Balances chased by phone and email as the departure date gets close.
- Providers that are cautious about payments taken long before the holiday happens.

A typical setup
What I would usually put in place.
Every business is different, so this is a starting point. Yours is designed after we have talked through how you actually work.
- Online and pay-by-link deposits at the point of booking
- Balance reminders that carry a link to pay
- Payments built into your booking system
- Account terms that suit payments taken well ahead of travel
