Customers of ocean carriers and cruisers gain new access to reliable and swift digital payments while out at sea. 

20th of June 2023 - PXP Financial, an expert in acquiring and payment processing services,  and member of the Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN), today announces it has achieved Oracle Validated Integration for its AnyPay platform with Oracle Hospitality Cruise Shipboard Property Management System (SPMS). This integration allows passengers travelling on ocean carriers to perform swift, flexible and reliable payments, utilizing services and products from both PXP Financial and Oracle.

To achieve the Oracle Validated Integration with SPMS Expertise, partners must meet a series of qualifiers, including demonstrating that the integration performs as documented. PXP Financial’s AnyPay platform meets this standard for use in the cruise sector thanks to its ability to store payments and process them when internet connection is lost. This means customers can make secure chip & PIN payments at any time in the journey without fear of the service dropping. By utilizing point to point encryption and tokenization, the AnyPay solution is also able to keep the stored payments secure and safe, both before and during the transition to the issuing bank.

Kamran Hedjri, CEO of PXP Financial, commented: “Over the last couple of years we have seen many advancements in the payments space. As the Cruise sector is set for growth again, it is vital that these same advancements can be enjoyed by its passengers and by achieving Oracle Validated Integration for our AnyPay platform we can make this happen. With this, cruise ship operators no longer need to worry about a digital payments transaction being declined on the open sea and can begin further embracing the benefits of our modern payment ecosystem.”

“Achieving Oracle Validated Integration gives our customers confidence that the integration between PXP Financial AnyPay platform and Oracle Shipboard Property Management System (SPMS) is functionally sound and performs as tested,” said David Hicks, Group Vice President ISV Cloud Strategy and Business Development at Oracle. “For solutions deployed on-premises, in the cloud, or both, Oracle Validated Integration applies a rigorous technical review and test process that helps to reduce deployment risk and improves the user experience of the partner’s integrated offering.”

PXP Financial - which previously achieved validation for its Pay at Table, Pay at Counter and Pay at Reception integrations – has now enabled the ability for customers to make fast and secure digital payments while out at sea. The AnyPay solution is just one of PXP Financials’ many customer-first payments offerings. PXP Financial makes payment solutions for people and ensures it takes the feedback from its customers to heart when delivering its global payment solutions.
