A Simpler Way to Pay Vendors in Hospitality
REPAY Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: RPAY), a provider of vertically integrated payment solutions, has joined forces with Otelier, the hospitality software and performance optimization platform. The new integration folds REPAY’s capabilities into Otelier’s DigiPay, giving hotels a more direct, digital way to handle vendor payments. The goal is straightforward: streamline how hotels pay their bills so teams can spend less time on back-office tasks and more time running the property.
How DigiPay Moves Accounts Payable Forward
With REPAY embedded in Otelier’s DigiPay, hotels can digitize their outbound payment workflows and reduce the manual steps that slow things down. Checks, hand-keying, and repetitive invoice handling are replaced with a system designed to move payments faster and with more control. By tightening up the process, DigiPay helps finance teams reclaim hours each week and gives managers clearer visibility into cash flow—so the operation runs smoother and staff can refocus on guests rather than paperwork.
In practice, that means fewer scattered tools and fewer handoffs. Payment initiation, tracking, and reconciliation live in one place, alongside the rest of Otelier’s performance tools, making everyday tasks feel less like a maze and more like a checklist.
What Leaders at Otelier and REPAY Are Saying
Vic Chynoweth, CEO of Otelier, put it plainly: "Hoteliers are spending too much time and utilizing too many resources each week paying vendors and managing the payment process. We are thrilled to integrate with REPAY to digitize the vendor payment process within DigiPay for faster and more secure payments, allowing our clients to return to providing exceptional hospitality." The message lands: fewer steps, better control, and more time to deliver the experience guests actually notice.
What the Integration Includes
The REPAY–Otelier connection brings vendor payments and invoice management into a single interface built for hotel operations. Two core rails power the actual movement of money: virtual cards and ACH. With those options available inside DigiPay, hotels can choose what fits the vendor and the moment—prioritizing speed, security, and predictability without switching systems.
Just as important, keeping payments and invoices together reduces friction across the process. Teams can initiate payments, monitor status, and keep records aligned without jumping between tools, which helps cut down on errors and follow-ups.
Lean Operations, Better Stays
When payments move cleanly end to end, staff spend less time chasing approvals, printing checks, or reconciling mismatched records. That time goes back to the front of the house—staffing the desk, serving guests, and keeping the operation steady during peak hours. Pair REPAY’s payment technology with Otelier’s optimization features, and you get a finance workflow that’s quieter and more predictable. Quiet, in this case, is good.
Why It Matters for Hospitality
Darin Horrocks, Executive Vice President of Business Payments at REPAY, notes, "Our integration with Otelier represents a significant step forward in our mission to provide innovative payment solutions that meet the unique needs of various industries. By combining our cutting-edge payment technology with Otelier DigiPay’s powerful platform, we are empowering hotel operators to achieve unparalleled efficiency and focus on delivering exceptional hospitality." In short, modernizing payment operations isn’t just a finance win—it supports the guest experience by freeing up attention where it counts.
