How SmartHotelPay Works: Simplifying Your Booking.com Invoice Payments

Managing invoices from online travel agencies (OTAs) like Booking.com can be a daunting task for hoteliers. It requires careful attention to detail, timely payments, and often, currency conversion. SmartHotelPay is here to simplify the process by handling the payment of your Booking.com invoices—on your behalf—while you focus on what really matters: running your hotel.

Here’s how it works:

1. Upload Your Booking.com Invoice

The process is quick and easy. All you need to do is upload your Booking.com invoice to the SmartHotelPay platform. Whether it’s a commission invoice or a payment request, we accept Booking.com invoices in their standard format, making the process seamless.
• Easy Upload: Simply upload your invoice directly through the platform, and we’ll take care of the rest.
• Multiple Invoice Types Supported: No matter the invoice type, SmartHotelPay can handle it.

2. Fund Your Account

Once your invoice is uploaded, you’ll need to fund your SmartHotelPay account to cover the payment. We accept payments in your local currency, allowing for greater flexibility and convenience.
• Accepted Payment Methods: Fund your account using bank transfer, mobile money, or credit card—whichever method works best for you.
