Sunrate announces strategic partnership with Agoda

FinTech company and global payment and treasury management platform Sunrate, has entered into a partnership with Agoda.

The partnership is announced one month after ITB Asia 2022, where Sunrate shared with travel stakeholders on how its holistic online travel solution, comprising of virtual cards issuance is revolutionising travel payments.

For example, any online travel agency can easily set spend limits, define usage, and choose the vendor using a virtual card. This gives its travel partners entire control over how spending are allocated and tracked. One major feature of virtual cards is security. Technology, such as application programming interfaces (APIs) has eliminated the possibility of card information being abused when given, by providing a limited window of use for a single card.

Sunrate is certified to the international financial data security standard: Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) Level 1.

Shawn Qin, Head of Card Business, Sunrate notes “at Sunrate, we are committed to constantly innovate our offerings, so that ultimately, we can be the one-stop B2B partner for the travel industry, by solving different business needs for our travel partners and customers. We look forward to working with even more partners from the travel industry and beyond.”
