PayEasy Introduces Online Reservations to Help Boost Local Tourism

June 22 2009 (Cebu City, Philippines) - The movers and shakers of the local tourism and hospitality industry gathered and discussed strategies in the recently concluded Philippine International Tourism Fair (PITF) held at Marco Polo Plaza Cebu from June 25 to 27. Mozcom participated in the event by becoming a flag bearer for tourism opportunities online. In addition to its award-winning PayEasy Online Payment System ("PayEasy"), Mozcom introduced its hosted Online Booking and Reservation System.

Using the online booking system, hotel and resort operators can now allow potential visitors from around the world to check on the availability of a room and make a reservation on-the-spot. With PayEasy accepting all the major credit cards, PayPal and direct bank debits from several Asian and European countries, hotels and resorts can reach a wider audience.

"Online reservation systems can be quite expensive. Add-on modules from known vendors can cost more than a million pesos," said Robertson Chiang, Mozcom COO/CTO. "We are offering a unique proposal -- get the online payment system from us and we will provide you the online reservation application at no cost. And because it is hosted in Mozcom's servers, you do not have to worry about maintenance as well. This gives you more time to focus on your customers."

The PITF 2009 aimed to serve as a melting pot of tourism services and products where local operators are able to meet, greet and sell to local and foreign buyers, clients and business partners such as travel agencies, travel planners, tour operators and wellness program organizers. It also sought to highlight the best of tourism destinations that Central Visayas can offer.
