For the past few years, it has been increasingly important for E-Clear to capture and meet the very specific payment requirements of millions of businesses around the globe.
Although each of these markets have their own defined needs, it is perhaps the Hospitality sector that requires a little special attention, simply by the fact that this industry serves not just one, but a whole host of different sectors including Travel, Retail and Leisure.
With major growth and improvements to our transport systems, together with the fact that more and more people have an increasing amount of leisure time, the Hospitality industry has been experiencing a considerable growth curve, as an increasing number of people have been visiting hotels, guest houses, restaurants, bars and sporting events all around the world.
As with any payment transaction, the customer must always feel comfortable with the entire process, whether seated at their table or paying at the bar or counter. Security, privacy and convenience, must all play their part in the customer's payment experience, in any service based environment.
According to the Centre for Regional and Tourism Research, Internet sales alone for hotel and guest house accommodation in 2006 amounted to almost £4.5 billion. When you also consider the fact that globally there are some 15 million Point-of-Sale terminals just for the Hospitality industry, the major importance of both Online and Point-of-Sale payment channels for this particular market can be clearly seen.
