Simple, as it is smart.
Benefits all stakeholders can count on
During the early stages of event planning, it's essential to make timely payments for securing the venue, booking hotel accommodations, and arranging flights — all while staying within budget and following procurement guidelines.
Feeling overwhelmed already?
Rest assured, our payment suite offers the solution with:
- Centralized, prompt payment guarantee for the event venue, when on-time (pre-)payment matters most
- Convenient MICE platform integration for a smooth booking process
- Cost control with pre-budget assignment and pre-authorization functionality settings
- Compliant payment with corporate purchasing policies

Your event planner has just found the perfect venue for the upcoming corporate gala. The catch? A hefty downpayment is due yesterday to secure this hotspot.
Navigating through limited cost transparency and high-pressure payment processes can feel like a rollercoaster ride.
With unexpected last-minute downpayment requests, worries about purchasing policy compliance as well as meeting Days Payable Outstanding (DPO) goals, it's easy to feel out of control.
But don't worry!
Our AirPlus payment solution suite transforms this experience from daunting to delightful with:

- Pressure-free payment processes thanks to a fitting form of centralized payment
- Extra spend availability without cash flow consequences
- Improved payment terms with additional DPO
- Seamless integration into existing corporate processes and systems

Event planning and finance can sometimes feel like sailing through stormy seas, facing challenges such as inflation, tight budget constraints, and complicated data reconciliation.
These hurdles, combined with lengthy contracting processes, tracking payment difficulties, and limited on-site payment visibility, may seem daunting even for seasoned professionals.
The AirPlus payment solution suite is the beacon on your horizon, offering:
- End-to-end expense visibility thanks to the implementation of the payment solution suite for centralized payment and reporting purposes pre-event, on-site, and post-event
