Why Choose Daystar for Airline Payment Processing
Airlines are considered high risk because tickets are paid for weeks or months before the flight, which creates long future-delivery exposure, and because cancellations, schedule changes and booking fraud drive chargebacks. As a high risk merchant account provider, Daystar provides tailored payment solutions for the unique requirements of the airline sector, from scheduled carriers to charter and private aviation operators.
We help you accept payments from customers worldwide in multiple currencies, with robust fraud detection to secure bookings and flexible settlement options suited to your operation. A compliance-focused approach helps you meet card-brand and industry requirements for travel merchants, and our team consults with you to structure reserves, descriptors and refund flows.
Daystar works with 20 acquiring banks across 4 continents and offers domestic and offshore processing and multiple MIDs. There are no long-term contracts, and most decisions arrive within 24 hours. Our team reviews your routes, booking window and refund history so your account is placed with an acquiring bank experienced in travel.

Credit Card Processing
Accept major cards for ticket sales, seat upgrades, baggage fees and onboard purchases. Processing is set up for future-delivery travel volume, and fraud controls help catch stolen-card bookings, which often target last-minute and one-way international tickets. Airline payment processing with Daystar also covers charter deposits, group fares and change fees under the same account.
Payment Gateways
Airline Payment Gateways
Connect a payment gateway to your booking engine, reservation system or charter quote platform. Tokenization, 3D Secure support, address and CVV checks and custom fraud rules help simplify booking processes and manage transactions efficiently. Booking management is simpler when every payment, refund and change fee is linked to the passenger record for reconciliation and dispute evidence.
Mobile Payment Apps

Mobile Payment Apps
Let travelers book and pay from their phones and take card payments at the gate, on board or at an FBO with mobile readers. Mobile payments cover ancillary sales such as seat selection and in-flight purchases. Every mobile payment appears in the same reporting as web bookings.
ACH and E-Checks
Airline
ACH & E-Checks
Collect from corporate travel accounts, tour operators and charter clients with ACH and eCheck. Bank payments are ideal for large group bookings and private charter invoices where card fees and chargeback exposure are higher. Payment status can update your booking records automatically, so operations teams see which charters are paid before dispatch.
Subscription Billing
Airline
Subscription Billing
Bill loyalty memberships, lounge access plans, subscription flying programs and jet card installments with recurring billing. Automated charges and clear renewal notices keep membership revenue steady. Failed-payment retries and account updater keep members active, and clear cancellation terms help prevent disputes. These programs give airlines predictable revenue alongside ticket sales that swing with the season.

International Sales
Sell fares worldwide with multi-currency acceptance and domestic or offshore processing. Presenting prices in the traveler’s currency improves conversion, and routing international cards to suitable acquiring banks reduces cross-border declines. Global payment acceptance with local currency options helps airlines compete for travelers who book from home in their own currency, and reporting shows performance by market.
