With GroupSync’s platform, hotels can now offer real-time availability and direct booking for group guest rooms, meeting spaces, and food and beverage services.
Meeting professionals benefit from an efficient system to search, compare, and book accommodations and event spaces worldwide, either directly online or through an optimised request for proposal (RFP) process.
The partnership leverages Spreedly’s open payments platform to enable hotel customers to swiftly integrate with GroupSync and maintain existing relationships with their payment service providers.
Moreover, Spreedly significantly reduces the Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance burden for hotels, eliminating the need for extensive on-site data security assessments.
