Hotel and hospitality merchant accounts that tie booking, front desk and on-property payments together, with secure guest transactions and support for deposits and pre-authorizations. Apply with confidence.
Why Choose Daystar for Hotel & Hospitality Payment Processing
Hotels, boutique inns, vacation rentals and resorts take payments in more ways than most merchants: advance deposits, card-on-file guarantees, pre-authorizations at check-in, incidentals, restaurant and spa charges, and final folio settlement. Each step carries its own dispute risk, especially no-shows, cancellations and charges guests do not recognize, so the right processing setup matters for both cash flow and guest experience.
Daystar builds hotel and hospitality merchant accounts with 20 acquiring banks across 4 continents, integrating payments with your booking and property systems and protecting guest data with tokenization and fraud tools. As a high risk merchant account provider for properties that need one, we have a 95% approval rate among qualified applicants, most decisions come within 24 hours, and there are no long-term contracts.

Staff can take payments anywhere on the property: poolside service, events, tours, valet or mobile check-in. Mobile acceptance speeds up lines at busy times and keeps revenue from add-on services flowing into the same reporting as the front desk. Receipts can be sent by text or email so guests have a record before they return to their room.
ACH and E-Checks
Hotel & Hospitality
ACH & E-Checks
Group bookings, corporate accounts, wedding blocks and event contracts often involve large invoices that businesses and planners prefer to pay by bank transfer. ACH and eCheck payments lower your cost on those high-ticket balances compared with card acceptance. Planners can pay deposits and final balances on schedule, and your accounting team gets clear remittance records.
Subscription Billing
Hotel & Hospitality
Subscription Billing
Extended-stay properties, vacation rental managers and clubs can bill weekly or monthly stays, memberships and owner fees on a recurring schedule. Automated billing with card-updater tools reduces missed payments and manual follow-up by your front office team. Tenants and members get predictable charges, and your staff spends less time processing payments at the desk.
