WASHINGTON and MENLO PARK, Calif., March 19, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — UATP and Uplift are pleased to announce their collaboration to provide installment payments for travelers. The UATP-Uplift partnership enables travel partners to deploy installment payments directly in their online booking flow while transacting across the UATP network.

“Flexible payments are a proven way to increase conversion and drive new revenue. Together, we wanted to make flexible payments simple and easy to implement,” said Brian Barth, CEO and founder, Uplift. “Uplift and UATP are collaborating to enable a seamless and transparent implementation of Uplift Pay Monthly on the UATP network – delivering instant ROI.”

Through UATP’s Network, Uplift is working with the world’s largest airlines and travel companies to leverage payments as a marketing tool that boosts conversion and increases ancillary revenues.  Uplift allows airlines to offer travelers the ability to buy now and pay over time, with low, fixed monthly payments, clarity on the total cost, only a one-day advance purchase and no hidden fees.  With Uplift, customers are able to lock-in advance purchase fares for that once in a lifetime trip or a hard-earned family vacation while paying over time. Uplift’s travel-specific business model supports the airline’s direct to consumer distribution strategies by never re-marketing to passengers.
