As a part of the recently announced partnership between Helloworld Travel Group (ASX: HLO) and Mint Payments, HLO’s proprietary mid-office system, Resworld, will be integrated exclusively with Mint’s new product, MintEFT, in the coming months. Mint’s will be the sole payments provider integrated with the Resworld system covering both C2B and B2B payments.
The project will see the seamless integration of the two platforms, enabling agents to utilise all of the functionality that is available through the standalone MintEFT system, without the need to leave the Resworld platform. It will enable significant efficiencies for agents with regard to processing and reconciliation as well as speed of payment to suppliers in order to avoid booking delays.
“We are excited to be partnering with Mint as our key payments technology partner. Mint provides Resworld with the technology to streamline transactions improving the speed, productivity and efficiency for our consultants and their customers. We look forward to implementing current and future innovations that Mint has to offer” said Resworld’s Emily Soden.
Amit Nanda, Mint’s Head of Engineering, said “The integration of Mint’s payment products with Resworld is particularly exciting for us, not just in building on the partnership with Helloworld, but in the simplification it will bring to the significant number of agents who will benefit from the technology through a seamless payments experience.”
