The new playbook for scaling global travel payments

Global travel is back—and on track to surpass pre-pandemic levels. This year, one in eight households worldwide is expected to take at least one international trip, contributing over $1.5 trillion in annual spending. But while the industry has bounced back from the pandemic, many travel companies are still losing millions to outdated financial systems that weren’t built for cross-border scale.

From forced currency conversions to slow supplier payouts and limited local payment options, legacy infrastructure is quietly eroding margins, dissuading travelers and creating operational drag.

In this webinar, we’ll explore how leading travel brands are rethinking financial operations to reduce costs, accelerate growth and move money as efficiently as they move people.

What you’ll learn:

• Where hidden inefficiencies in payments are costing travel companies millions
• How to eliminate forced conversions and reduce FX fees and risk
• Ways to streamline supplier payouts across currencies and countries
• Why offering local currencies and payment methods matters for booking conversion and satisfaction
• What to look for in a financial partner built for global travel

Speakers will include:

• Nicole Ashong, director of enterprise at Airwallex
• Mitul Gandhi, co-founder and CTO at Hotel Trader
