Connecting the dots between booking, billing, and check-in

What is Connect Direct?

Connect Direct delivers virtual card data directly into hotel Property Management Systems (PMS) and Central Reservation Systems (CRS). Automatically, securely, and at scale.

It removes manual steps, eliminates payment breakdowns, and gives full visibility across every transaction. No forms. No emails. No workarounds.

Smooth stays start with smarter payments

Even with virtual cards in place, hotel payments still break down at the final step, where systems don’t connect and manual workarounds creep in. Here’s where it goes wrong, and how Connect Direct keeps it moving.

    Copy & paste errors

    Manual entry from booking tools to hotel systems often leads to typos and mismatches that cause payment failures. Connect Direct eliminates that risk by delivering card data exactly as issued. No errors, no rework, no surprises.

    Failed authorisations

    When hotels receive incomplete or incorrect card details, it results in declined payments and delayed check-ins. Connect Direct sends all required information (including expiry, billing instructions, and card numbers) directly into the hotel system, so payments go through the first time.

    Check-in delays

    Missing or misfiled payment information slows down the check-in process and frustrates travellers. Connect Direct ensures hotels have the right card, attached to the right booking, in the right place. Making arrival seamless.

    Manual expense claims

    Travellers often pay out of pocket and submit claims later, adding admin for everyone. With Connect Direct, the virtual card is used by the hotel at the point of payment, so there’s no need for receipts, reimbursements, or expense forms.

    VAT/GST reclaim headaches

    Without consistent, accurate invoices tied to each transaction, reclaiming VAT or GST becomes a headache. Connect Direct links every payment to the booking and ensures clean, audit-ready documentation every time.

    Limited visibility for finance teams

    Manual processes create data gaps and make reconciliation harder. Connect Direct provides real-time visibility from booking to billing, automatically linking each transaction for easier reporting, policy compliance, and spend control.

Get ahead while others catch up
