Payment Acceptance for Islamabad Hotel Guests

Hostanova integrates with Stripe for international card payments — Visa, Mastercard, and American Express — and with local Pakistan payment processors for domestic card transactions, mobile wallet payments, and online banking transfers. The integration means payment acceptance is handled within the hotel management platform rather than through a separate terminal that needs manual reconciliation with the billing system.

For advance payments on reservations, Hostanova can present a payment link that the guest completes online before arrival — the advance payment records against the booking folio automatically. At checkout, the outstanding folio balance is settled through the same integrated payment module. All payments generate FBR-compliant receipts with the correct GST applied.

Payment Security and Compliance for Islamabad Hotels

Payment security at Islamabad hotels involves both technical PCI-DSS compliance and Pakistan regulatory compliance under SBP digital payment rules. Hostanova's payment gateway integration is PCI-DSS compliant — card data is handled by the certified payment processor (Stripe or local equivalent) and never stored on Hostanova's servers. The hotel only receives a masked card reference and transaction confirmation.

All payment records — date, amount, payment method, staff terminal, and FBR tax figures — are stored in the Hostanova audit log for a minimum of seven years, satisfying the FBR tax record retention requirement. Refunds, reversals, and disputed transactions are also logged with full audit trails — protecting the hotel and the guest.
