Travel & Hospitality
Large bookings, many currencies, fewer declines.
Travel payments are big, cross-border and booked far ahead, which is exactly what processors get nervous about. Orchestrapay routes each booking to the processor best placed to approve it.
Payments in Travel & Hospitality
Why travel payments get declined.
Big tickets trigger declines
A large, cross-border booking looks risky to an issuer, and one processor gives it one chance.
Fraud and liability on high-value bookings
A fraudulent booking can cost the full fare plus the chargeback fee.
Processors hold funds or freeze accounts
Booking far ahead of travel means long exposure, and processors respond with reserves and reviews.
Cancellations turn into disputes
A traveller who cannot reach you files a chargeback instead.
How it works
From search to confirmed booking.
Price in the traveller's currency
Route each currency to the processor account that settles it.
Authenticate where it matters
Force 3D Secure for large or cross-border bookings in your routing rules, and let the rest through.
Confirm on the processor that says yes
A decline cascades to the next processor in the same checkout, so the booking still confirms.
Questions teams ask before they switch.
Yes. Routing rules can force 3D Secure by amount, country, currency or BIN on the processors that support it.
