AsiaPay joins Airswift to simplify travel payment experience across Asia

By Gloria Mathias

AsiaPay, a digital payment service and technology provider in Asia, has teamed up with Airswift.

Airswift is a boutique airline in the Philippines with a permit to operate domestic scheduled and chartered air transportation services focusing on Palawan routes. The Ayala-affiliated carrier has partnered with AsiaPay as its major digital payments provider to further its services and expansion in the market.

With this partnership, Airswift is integrated into the PesoPay Payment Gateway, which provides beneficial, streamlined payment services to its passengers. Airswift flyers only need to connect to PesoPay once to be able to have access to the cards, eWallets, and Net banking payment options. This intelligent service solution enables Airswift’s frequent online passengers to enjoy a more convenient checkout and a truly stress-free travel experience, resulting in increased transaction acceptance rates.

“The facility enables Airswift to operate more cost-effectively, enabling the business to capitalize on the myriad of opportunities in the growing Asian network and possibly beyond the Philippines in the near future. In support of our goals of growth and market expansion, Airswift needed a pioneering payment provider in Asia like AsiaPay with the scale and international expertise to help build our successful eCommerce presence in the Philippines,” shared Liza Tango, Airswift CFO.

Through this partnership with Airswift, Asiapay can offer all the payment options that travellers in growing regions desire.

As a digital payment service and technology player in Asia, it strives to add different new payment methods and features to its digital payment platform to readily enhance sales, service, productivity, and risk savings.

“We are proud to launch this service alongside Airswift. Being a leading digital payment service player in Asia, we understand our merchant’s pain points in addressing an ever-changing consumer need for a more convenient, user-friendly, and more secure way to pay online for tickets and travel services,” said, Alberto Javier, Associate Director, Sales, and Marketing of AsiaPay.
