Pliant: made for your travel company
TMCs
Travel management companies (TMCs) are at the center of the business travel market: facilitating payments every day to airlines, hotels, car rental companies and more.
OTAs
Your online platform lives and breathes efficiency, and you need a platform that ensures full automation from day one. With Pliant, you can ensure seamless purchasing with VCCs, as well as a massive reduction of your payment support burden.
Tour operators
If you’re buying flights, hotel rooms and experiences in bulk, you need a payment solution that enables you to scale your operations effectively. Pliant’s flexible billing cycles mean that you plan for the long term with larger individual payments.
Bed banks
For bed banks, margins are the name of the game – and acquiring your inventory effectively is a huge step forward. Pliant’s payment platform for travel makes it simple to increase your margins with generous cashback offers on purchases.
Our previous virtual credit card system had several shortcomings. After getting familiar with Pliant, we found that practically all of them were covered and solved.

Grow your margins
When costs are rising and competition is at an all-time high, your travel company is being squeezed from all sides. However, even in this tough environment, it’s still possible for travel companies to increase margins.
With features such as rebates to open new revenue streams, as well as a flexible, expense-saving approach to currency interchange, our payment solution helps travel companies expand their margins one transaction at a time.
Increase your operating efficiency
There’s no time to lose: the more travel purchases you make, the more important automation and efficiency become. Let Pliant lead the way. Use our payment solution to access a dedicated travel purchasing card: enabling seamless purchasing for your organization.
With Pliant Pro API, as well as integrations to the travel tech stack your company already uses, you can streamline payment processes: reducing the need for support staff and cutting down on operational expenses.
Plug it. Play it. Pay it. Meet Pliant Pro API.
Our easy-to-implement API enables you to:
Automate bulk processes for travel purchasing.
Issue new virtual credit cards (VCCs) for each travel purchase, reducing risk and simplifying accounting workflows.
Use your Pliant VCCs alongside your traditional bank or credit card provider.
Flexible credit lines and payment terms
For travel companies, working capital is among the most important indicators of your performance and, as such, low working capital can become a major pain point: particularly for Travel Management Companies (TMCs) and traditional travel agencies.
The reason for this is that the structure of these types of travel companies means that capital has the potential to get “tied up,” and the bigger your business grows, the greater the risk that low working capital poses.
A payment solution for merchants of record
Transitioning to become a merchant of record needn’t be a burden to your business. On the contrary – with Pliant as your payment solution, your travel company can use it as an opportunity.
We provide flexible credit lines to merchants of record that can be customized to fit specific needs: providing greater financial control during peak travel seasons. Our flexible repayment options mean that Pliant can be completely adapted to your business model.
