“We thought out the paravion.ro website and all the other services that we offer, so that the visitor’s experience and the time they spend for booking the vacation to be optimum and first-class. The confort brought by the online payments through credit card made us introduce this option and we searched for a simple solution, that could offer credibility to our clients and that shouldn’t take long” says Dragos Penca, Executive Manager MILLENNIUM Tour. “We chose ePayment® from GECAD ePayment, because it is a friendly solution, secured and easy to use, making the holiday planning on the Internet a natural gesture”, added Dragos Penca.
The www.paravion.ro project is a special one that integrates the most used online booking solution - Amadeus Agency Internet Engine (ePower) – and a processing system for the online payments through banking card – ePayment®. As we mentioned, the two solutions directly communicate, which means that the actualization of the orders and the synchronization of the details are made in real time. The user has permanent control on the bookings and on the payments. Further, he benefits of all the ePayment® instruments regarding the protection against fraud, the administration of commands and the clients’ support.
“The two solutions’ integration, ePayment® and Amadeus Agency Internet Engine (ePower), was a real challenge. We started from two complex solutions, each of them built on different functional algorithms that in the end work as a unitary system. The result is due to the high level of flexibility and security offered by ePayment®, alongside with the opening of the team that was involved” says Razvan Militaru, Product Expert, AMADEUS Romania.
