Airline & Travel Payments Summit APAC Forum
Sydney
The pandemic forced a pace of change that brought innovations quicker to market than ever before. This session of ATPS APAC was all about how these innovations can drive down the cost of payment acceptance, while also improving customer experience – from Open Banking to Alternative Payment Methods – which in turn drive sales conversion. We’ were joined by experts in their field and will also showcase some new products and services with the aim of helping all participants get down to business.
ATPS APAC Forum will host decision-makers working in commercial departments from air carriers and travel companies from around the globe. Sponsorship offers an ideal opportunity to reach potential airline & travel business prospects.
