GuestBridge Expands Payment Processing Partnerships

Hospitality Businesses Can Now Interface their GuestBridge Solutions with Any of the Major Payment Processors

MILWAUKEE, June 21, 2006 – GuestBridge, Inc., the industry leader in hospitality guest information management, today announced that its popular payment processing interface for GuestBridge Reserve and GuestBridge Casual can now work with all of the industry’s major payment processors. The list includes First Data Merchant Services, Global Payment Systems, Heartland Payment Systems, Mercury Payment Systems, Nova Information Systems, Paymentech, and Vital Processing Services (Visanet).

“We’ve made it even easier for our clients to process their payments in-house or online,” said Claire Ellington, Vice President of Marketing and Operations for GuestBridge. “Many restaurants and other venues sell fixed price items at time of reservation, such as prix fixe meals, flowers, special event dinners, even theater tickets or parking. The ability to take payment up front helps our clients’ cash flow and bottom line.”

Guests can make payment via credit card, check, or cash – whatever is most convenient for them.  And, the system can be configured to work with multiple price points, child or adult tickets, or special pricing for loyalty program members. “The flexibility of the GuestBridge system overall is really what sets apart in the industry,” continued Ms. Ellington.
