IT COMPANY CONFERMA has signed a partnership deal with travel payment specialist AirPlus International. Under the agreement, customers will be provided with a new automated payment system for hotel bookings. The AirPlus Conferma Hotel Settlement Solution is available to corporates via their TMC or hotel booking agency.
A joint statement by the two companies said the customers would receive a 'virtual card' with a unique number for each hotel booking. The booking is then billed back to the virtual card, which will automatically make the required payment. The system will also capture additional data including the customer's cost centre, budget codes and employee ID.
