Ovimore Pay Coming soon
Hotels lose margin on every OTA payment. Ovimore Pay wins it back.
At an average hotel around 70% of bookings come through OTAs like Booking.com, Expedia and Airbnb. Behind each booking sits a tangle of virtual cards, batch payouts, commissions, city tax and refunds. The gap between an expensive virtual card and a normal bank transfer is quickly around 2% of the transaction, and most hotels leave that on the table. Ovimore Pay wins it back.
The problem
OTAs bring volume, but the payments are messy and quietly expensive.
OTAs are already costly through commission. On top of that the financial side is complex: every OTA settles differently. Some pay through virtual cards (expensive), others through bank transfers or batch payouts. Hotels reconcile every payment by hand, and overpay on fees while they do it.
Expensive payment methods
Virtual cards and card-based payouts carry real transaction fees. At high OTA volume that adds up fast.
Manual finance checks
Finance teams reconcile payouts against reservations, commissions, taxes, refunds and cancellations by hand.
Opaque payouts
One OTA can settle many reservations in a single batch. It is hard to see which payment belongs to which booking.
Invisible margin leakage
Small gaps in commission, city tax, refunds, chargebacks and payment fees become large across hundreds of bookings.
How it works
A control layer on top of your OTA payments.
Ovimore Pay connects reservation data, OTA payouts and payment data. It works out what you should receive, checks what actually landed, and shows you where the gaps and the savings are.
Calculate the expected payout
For each OTA booking we work out the net amount you should receive after commission, taxes, refunds and changes.
Match payments automatically
We match OTA payouts to reservations on IDs, amounts, dates, payment references and fallback logic.
Flag the exceptions
Deviations, missing payments, chargebacks, refunds and unmatched payouts surface in one view for finance review.

The saving
2% sounds small. Until you run it over OTA revenue.
The gap between an expensive virtual card flow and a cheaper bank transfer is quickly around 2% of the amount. At a 70% OTA share that adds up. Move the sliders for your hotel.
Indicative. Actual saving depends on your OTA mix and payment methods.
