SOTpay at the Independent Hotel Show

Thanks for stopping by our stand at the Independent Hotel Show. You’ve seen how SOTpay is transforming payments for hotels across the UK — here’s everything you need to know to bring it into your business.

 

The Challenge Hotels Face

Running a hotel isn’t just about exceptional guest service — it’s about protecting revenue. Rising chargebacks, fraud, and card processing fees are hitting margins harder than ever. Add in PCI DSS compliance headaches, and suddenly payments feel like a liability rather than an opportunity.

Guests also expect to pay however they choose: by phone, by email, via WhatsApp, or directly through their mobile wallet. Clunky systems risk losing bookings and guest trust.


The SOTpay Solution

SOTpay gives hotels a secure, omnichannel way to take payments — without the compliance burden.

  • Omnichannel payments: Secure links sent via phone, email, SMS, WhatsApp, live chat, or social media.

  • PMS integration: Works seamlessly with Oracle OPERA and other leading hotel management systems.

  • Fraud prevention built-in: Strong Customer Authentication shifts liability to issuers, reducing costly disputes.

  • Cutting card costs: Accept Open Banking payments to slash processing fees.


Benefits for Hotels

With SOTpay, hotels can:

  • Protect deposits and guarantee bookings securely.

  • Take fast payments for upgrades, F&B, spa packages, or late check-outs.

  • Enable tipping and add-on sales through digital payment links.

  • Simplify PCI DSS compliance across every department — from reception to reservations.


Trusted by Hospitality Leaders

“SOTpay allowed us to take secure remote payments without burdening our staff with PCI requirements. Guests love the simplicity, and we love the reduced fraud risk.”
