- Payouts
- Payment Analytics
Paynancial helps travel businesses collect booking deposits and balances through the Payment Gateway or Payment Links, refund cancellations in full or in part, and pay hotels, airlines and local partners by bank transfer or UPI with Payouts.
How travel businesses collect and move money — and where it gets hard.
- Payments in stages
- A booking is often paid as a deposit now and a balance closer to departure, and each part has to be tracked against the same trip.
- High-value transactions
- Holiday packages and group bookings are large payments, so customers want a payment step they trust.
- Cancellations and changes
- Cancellations and itinerary changes lead to full or partial refunds that must be traced back to the original booking.
- Many partners to pay
- Hotels, airlines, transport and local guides are paid separately, often in batches.
From first payment to reconciled books.

What it looks like in practice.
Illustrative examples of how travel businesses use Paynancial products.

- Sends a payment link for the deposit when a trip is confirmed and a second link for the balance before departure.

Practical things to get right.
- 01Set expiry dates on deposit links
An expiry date stops a link being paid after the offer or the seats are gone.
- 02Keep one reference per booking
Use the booking ID as the payment receipt so deposits, balances and refunds line up.
- 03Taking payment in other currencies?
If you sell to travellers paying in other currencies, discuss international payments with our team before you launch.

Travel payments questions.
Can I collect a deposit now and the balance later?
Yes. Send one payment link for the deposit and another for the balance, each with its own amount and expiry date.
How do I pay hotels and local partners?
With Payouts: send funds to a bank account or UPI ID, one at a time or in bulk, and track each payout to completion.
Can I refund a cancelled booking?
Yes. Refunds can be full or partial and are tracked from request through to completion.
Do travellers need to visit my website to pay?
No. A payment link works on its own; the traveller only needs the link.
