Start with the property technology
Each hotel’s PMS, gateway, brand requirements, and merchant agreement determine which processing options are available. We review those constraints before recommending a change.
HOTELS & HOSPITALITY
Explore recurring partner revenue while building a payment strategy around the realities of hotel operations.
THE WAY YOU WORK
Each hotel’s PMS, gateway, brand requirements, and merchant agreement determine which processing options are available. We review those constraints before recommending a change.
Management influence and ownership approval are different. We map the decision process with you so a proposed partnership respects each property’s authority and contracts.
With location-level statements and confirmed costs, we can compare merchant savings and the partner revenue available under an agreed pricing model.
Begin with suitable properties and validate reservations, deposits, payment acceptance, and reconciliation before considering wider adoption.
HOSPITALITY TECHNOLOGY
We work with payment solutions involving FreedomPay, Elavon, TSYS, and Fiserv. The right route depends on your PMS, gateway, processor platform, and brand requirements.
FreedomPay is a payment gateway and orchestration platform; it is not interchangeable with an acquiring processor. Access to a provider does not mean every PMS or hotel can use every processing route.
The directory distinguishes documented payment connections from systems needing further confirmation. It is not an exhaustive certification list or a guarantee that we can board a particular property. Reviewed September 14, 2026.

| Agilysys Stay / Versa / LMSProduct-level review required | Agilysys payment ecosystem | Agilysys lists FreedomPay for Agilysys Pay. This does not establish every PMS-to-processor combination; the exact product and acquiring route require confirmation. Provider documentation ↗ |
| Infor HMSProduct-level review required | FreedomPay ecosystem review | Infor appears in FreedomPay’s partner ecosystem. We must confirm the HMS-specific payment connection and acquiring arrangement before proposing an integration. Provider documentation ↗ |
| Shiji Daylight PMSProduct-level review required | FreedomPay ecosystem review | Shiji appears in FreedomPay’s partner ecosystem. That listing alone does not confirm a Daylight PMS deployment; product and processor support require review. Provider documentation ↗ |
Send us its name and version, your hotel brand, and your current gateway and processor. We’ll investigate the available route before recommending a change. TSYS and Fiserv compatibility is confirmed for the specific gateway and processing platform.
Check your property’s fitYOUR PRICING STRATEGY
You tell us what you want the business to pay, what you want to save, and what a partner return is worth to you. We build feasible options around those goals, actual costs, and the customer experience.
The merchant pays the processing fees. We compare pricing and technology to find room for savings while modeling any agreed partner return.
Best starting point when simplicity at checkout matters most.Present properly disclosed cash and card prices. An eligible program can offset processing costs through the card price, subject to the approved setup.
A route to reducing or eliminating eligible processing costs.Apply a disclosed surcharge to eligible credit-card payments where permitted. Debit and prepaid cards are excluded, and the surcharge must stay within applicable cost and rate limits.
Choose a permitted rate that fits your savings goals.Fee elimination applies only to costs covered by the approved program. Debit processing, software, gateway, equipment, monthly, and other fees may remain. Availability depends on location, transaction type, technology, card-network rules, and processor approval. A surcharge is a cost-recovery mechanism, not an unrestricted customer fee. Visa’s U.S. program guidance ↗
THE ECONOMICS, ON YOUR TERMS
These are two separate benefits. A lower merchant cost creates savings. An agreed share of eligible processing profit creates partner income. Your proposal shows both, with the deductions and payment timing spelled out.
