Totec, the event dedicated to tourism and new technologies, is taking place on December 17, so let’s make a special focus on a payment facility particularly suited to the travel sector: payment by instalments.
More and more merchants are offering their customers payment by instalments, a payment facility appreciated by all types of consumers: those who want to better manage their budget, be able to cope with unexpected events, or afford a product or service more expensive than planned.
59% of French people use the payment in several instalments at least once a year, and 19% use it at least once a month. 1 in 4 consumers say that payment by instalments is critical in choosing the brand, and 72% of customers believe it is a buy trigger *. By proposing it, the merchants bet on an optimization of their conversion rate and an increase of the average basket.
In the tourism sector, where the average basket is high, it is a particularly popular payment facility. It is an undeniable asset in a mix of payments adapted to tourism: alongside including the multi-currency, or holiday vouchers ANCV and multi-card payment.
Indeed in this sector even more than others, the moment when a client pays is crucial. It is necessary both to reassure the client who will sometimes spend a lot of money, but also to make his life easier with a simple and fast payment tunnel. Payment by instalments is logically more and more requested by travel agencies, airlines and accommodation to face these challenges.
Dalenys offers its merchants to integrate payment by instalments with Oney, which perfectly matches the expectations of this challenging sector.

Easier integration and day-to-day management
At Dalenys, payment by instalments with Oney has been available since 2017. Merchants like Misterfly or Lastminute have integrated it.
As usual, our experts go beyond simply putting a product into action: they have implemented transaction logs that allow merchants to link payments to transactions in a snap. An essential follow-up for this type of payment more difficult to track than a simple transaction.
