TROUBLE GETTING A MERCHANT ACCOUNT?

Do you run a travel agency or another tourism-related business? Like most industries these days, you need to accept credit cards to serve your customers and meet your business objectives. However, there are a few hurdles to jump over when setting up an online travel agency merchant account. Zen Payments is your headquarters for convenient, affordable travel payment solutions that can give your enterprise a competitive edge.

YOUR TRAVEL MERCHANT ACCOUNT SOLUTION

Finding a travel merchant account can be a difficult process. Travel merchants often find themselves struggling to find a payment processor due to the risks associated with the industry. This means that you need to use a travel merchant services company with experience in securing merchant accounts. Here at Zen Payments, we have made travel a top priority moving into 2021. The travel industry suffered greatly due to the pandemic, but in 2021 it is expected that it will rise to new heights. We have over 15 years of experience working with travel merchants and other high risk industries. We can secure you a merchant account, and get you processing payments the right way.

WHY IS THE TRAVEL INDUSTRIES HIGH-RISK?

The travel industry is deemed high-risk due to a variety of factors. One of the most prominent reasons is the ticket size. As you know hotels, flights, and other vacation-related expenses add up. Well when banks see these high ticket sizes, and then the customer proceeds to pay card not present, it creates a lot of risks for your processing bank. Many travel companies have strict refund policies surrounding cancellation.

However, when unexpected issues arise for a customer and they are no longer able to make that flight or stay in that timeshare, they are going to fight tooth and nail to get their funds back. This increases the risk of chargebacks. The only thing that banks hate more than chargebacks are high ticket-sized chargebacks. We help our clients mitigate chargebacks in order to keep their processing costs down.
