The 16th Annual Airline & Travel Payments Summit (ATPS) will be held in London on 15th and 16th of June 2022.  The last physical ATPS was also held near London in May 2019. It was themed “Engage, Experience and Execute,” looking at how to embrace the Internet of Things and the Internet of Commerce to improve our payments and fraud prevention.  How times have changed! As we climb out the Covid-19 Pandemic, the focus of global airlines and travel companies is re-finding profitability. This year we’ll look at payments´ role in increasing sales and driving revenues, as well as cutting costs.

The Covid-19 Pandemic was a game changer for airline and travel payments. From touchless technology to crypto, how customers want to pay has been transformed. We just experienced the largest refund and chargeback tsunami faced by any industry ever. On top, fraudsters have had lots of time to hone their skills and change their tactics. So, we’re calling this event “It’s Payments, Stupid” from a famous line that U.S. President Bill Clinton’s advisors often used in jest with him. They told him, “It’s the Economy, Stupid.” Similarly, for the global Airline and Travel Industry to be sustainably profitable again, it’s all about payments, including fraud prevention. You can’ be profitable if you don’t get paid! Join the ATPS 2021 Virtual, co-hosted with UATP, to ensure your business keeps its hard-earned revenues by staying ahead of fast moving payment trends.
