Sabre has partnered with Visa to support the growth of business-to-business (B2B) virtual payments in the travel industry. Under the agreement, travel buyers and suppliers will be able to pay and get paid with virtual Visa commercial cards, through the Sabre Virtual Payments solution. "Bringing together Visa's leadership position in digital B2B payments with Sabre's virtual payment technology and global network of customers represents a tremendous opportunity to increase the adoption of B2B virtual payments in the travel industry," said Wade Jones, president of Sabre Travel Network. "Sabre's investment in virtual payments and its integration into existing agency processes makes it quick and easy for our customers to adopt and use." Sabre Virtual Payments is a flexible electronic payment solution for the travel industry, offering multi-bank, multi-card, credit and prepaid accounts that allow customers to select the best payment option to ensure the most favorable payment terms.
