In-flight Payments: today and tomorrow

Airlines increasingly rely on ancillary revenue streams to meet their revenue and profitability targets. They look to upsell customers at any and every opportunity. This takes place before the departure date, at the airport and also whilst on-board. Airlines sell seat upgrades, travel insurance, duty free goods, food, lounge access, ground transportation options, entertainment and tickets as well as other products and services. Ticketing revenue on its own is no longer sufficient.

STS to host Cloud Payments Summit

On the 15th May STS will be hosting a Cloud Payments Summit at Altitude, Millbank Tower, London. At this event attendees will hear from IBM, NCR, Armor, Capita, Vodat and STS about why Cloud deployments are becoming the norm in the IT industry.

But is this suitable for payment applications that contain highly sensitive information and require fast processing and mission critical availability? Are cloud based POS payments the future? These are the types of questions that will be tackled in this first of its kind cloud payments summit.

Customer Authentication is Changing

The way businesses authenticate their customers when goods and services are purchased is changing. Older authentication and verification methods no longer offer sufficient levels of security protection and are being targeted by criminals. Signature verification was the original method used for payment card transactions and although many countries shifted to PINs years ago signatures have remained in use in the USA - the largest global cards market.
