Enablez Inc. and Shift4 Partner Up to Provide Robust Payment Solutions for the Complete Resort
June 22, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Enablez Inc., makers of ResortSuite, the leading integrated hospitality management software, announces its preferred partnership with Shift4, makers of $$$ ON THE NET®, the leading enterprise payment solution for the lodging industry. This partnership enables ResortSuite to offer its growing customer base a fast, reliable and secure credit, debit and gift card processing solution that can support even the most complex of enterprises.Fueling this partnership is a very similar business model and philosophy. Both ResortSuite and $$$ ON THE NET were developed with the resort community in mind, providing integrated solutions for not only a property’s front desk, but for all facets of its business, including spas, golf courses, restaurants, retail establishments, health clubs and even ski slopes.
“Both ResortSuite and $$$ ON THE NET can support a variety of customer types and sizes, but we both really shine as the enterprise gets more complex. The more merchant types, locations, processes and players, the more we differentiate ourselves from the competition,” stated J. David Oder, President & CEO of Shift4. “That’s why we are so excited to be able to add ResortSuite to our list of certified partners. It’s not often that you have the chance to work with a company whose goals so closely parallel your own.”
For both Shift4 and ResortSuite, one of these goals is ensuring the security of customer and financial data throughout their customer base and the industry as a whole. To this end, both companies have focused a great deal of resources on easing their customers’ security burden and enabling their compliance with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard.
“We pride ourselves on helping our clients know the most they can about their customers and helping them keep this information safe. Shift4’s Tokenization technology, which will actually remove the need to store any credit card data in our systems while still supporting a resort’s standard operating procedures like room charges, incremental authorizations and reporting, is one of the key reasons we selected Shift4 as a partner,” stated Frank Pitsikalis, President of Enablez.
Both ResortSuite and $$$ ON THE NET will be demonstrated during HITEC 2006. Please visit Shift4 (booth 314) and ResortSuite (booth 1335) for more information.
