Paytech firm Worldline has collaborated with Software as a Service (SaaS) platform provider Forthcode to provide in-flight payment solutions in India, leveraging its Android POS machines.  

This will address the hurdles linked to handling ancillary revenue for airlines, which need time-consuming manual processes.   

The alliance aims to address this hurdle and helps integrate in-flight retail, inventory management, and payment solutions on a single platform, which is hosted on the cloud.  

This SaaS solution can manage complete operations, including catering management and onboard sales.  

The new system allows travellers to make cashless purchases onboard, supporting quick transactions and automated reconciliation. 

Worldline India executive vice president Sheik Mohideen said: “Our partnership with Forthcode to enhance the in-flight experience demonstrates our commitment to providing a comprehensive omnichannel payment solution. I am confident that this collaboration will lead to smarter and more inclusive payment options that can accelerate business growth.”
