Its common for businesses to pay for travel and hotel bookings with a credit card.
So common that the popular card networks like Visa and Mastercard have made it seem as if card based payments are the only reliable ways to make travel bookings. With loyalty points to boot.
Increasingly, merchants who provide these services have become wary of paying steep merchant discount rates or MDR to card companies.
This becomes especially important when their own margins are wafer thin. Imagine an airline or a tour operator saving 2.5% of their billing on card processing fees each time!
This is now possible, as merchants have been accepting payment using Wire transfer and ACH transfer to their bank accounts directly. Services like REMITRÂ make this possible due to low cost and fast transfers directly to bank accounts bypassing the SWIFT network altogether. This is not only faster but saves businesses a ton of money spent on wire transfer fees.
