Pegasus to provide Hilton commissions
Pegasus Solutions Inc. signed a contract with Hilton International to provide hotel commission processes for 40 hotels through the year 2006.
The company says the new agreement gives the Hilton chain increased flexibility, particularly with currency issues and payment schedules that are now automated via the Pegasus service. Pegasus has the ability to consolidate and distribute commission payments in 22 different currencies.
More than 35,000 hotels worldwide participate in the Pegasus commission processing service.
Using information from the Hilton’s property management system, Pegasus consolidates monthly guest stay information related to hotel bookings by travel agencies. By using checkout data directly from the hotel chain’s property management system, Pegasus says it is able to drastically reduce the need for hotel back-office staff to manually make commission payments.
