Flywire Transforms Guest Payments and Operations for Leading Hospitality Management Company Davidson Hospitality Group

Flywire helps Davidson Hospitality Group achieve substantial annual processing fee savings through online payment processing and strategic ACH adoption

With Flywire, Davidson streamlines operations and elevates guest experiences across its property portfolio

BOSTON, Sept. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Flywire Corporation (Nasdaq: FLYW), a global payments enablement and software company, today announced a deepened partnership with Davidson Hospitality Group ("Davidson"), an award-winning, full-service hospitality management company, to roll out advanced payment and transaction management capabilities across its portfolio.

The expansion comes as Davidson properties have already demonstrated meaningful processing fee savings within months of deploying Flywire's integrated payments and e-signature platform - validating the company's decision to scale the solution across its entire portfolio. Through enhanced ACH payment acceptance and streamlined digital authorization workflows, Davidson is reducing operational overhead while accelerating cash collection cycles.

When Davidson first adopted Flywire's payments and digital signature solutions, the company gained the ability to compress guest deposit collection and contract execution into a single, mobile-first workflow. The impact was immediate: signature turnaround times fell by roughly 75%, and back-office reconciliation work dropped significantly. The platform empowers Davidson properties to:

• Reduce payment processing costs by accepting ACH transfers alongside credit and debit cards, shifting volume to lower-cost rails and cutting per-transaction expense;
• Mitigate chargeback risk by capturing signed authorization and payment intent simultaneously, creating audit trails that protect both the property and the guest. Flywire's white-glove chargeback response achieves over 70% win or no-contest rates on disputes, while maintaining industry-leading chargeback ratios of below 0.03%;
• Streamline reconciliation by automating payment matching, reducing manual data entry between property management systems and accounting platforms;
• Improve the guest experience by offering flexible payment options, transparent fee structures, and faster confirmation workflows;
  

Tim Debruin, Senior Corporate Director, Event Sales & Planning at Davidson Hospitality said: "Flywire creates value for us as a partner because they built their platform specifically for hospitality operations - not as a generic payment processor. What we've seen is a real reduction in friction across both our revenue cycle and guest journey. Our teams spend less time on operational busywork and more time focusing on the guest experience."

Colin Smyth, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Travel at Flywire, added: "We are thrilled to partner with Davidson and deliver value as they scale. Every property that engages sees a similar pattern - faster processing, better cash flow, happier guests. That's exactly the kind of partnership we want to continue building as they scale Flywire across their portfolio.”
