Learn about Integrated Payments for Hotels at AAHOA 2019

Whether you are a property management group or internal accounting, you need to view real-time information for specific properties and locations, departments, and more.  Hotels need to synchronize the data between multiple systems including hotel stores, fitness centers, casinos and/or other entities. It is critical for hotel businesses to automate processes with Property Management Systems (PMS) that also integrate with payment software for hotels to get the best rates and increase efficiency.

Finding the right integrated payment software for hotels is crucial since saving on each payment transaction may increase profits in the thousands of dollars.
