How we approach your merchant’s placement
Have a travel agencies & tour operators merchant your current providers cannot place? Centurion helps agents and ISOs assess the business, identify a suitable underwriting route, and prepare the file. A prior decline is a reason to investigate the cause, not a promise of a different outcome.
Travel payments often occur before a trip is delivered. Underwriters compare the booking, supplier, cancellation, and settlement flows to understand who owes the traveler if a trip changes.
Roadblocks to resolve before submitting the file
Long delivery windows, cancellations, supplier failures, and seasonal sales peaks can drive reserves or funding conditions.
Share the previous decline reason, current processor, proposed volume, average ticket, and any unresolved compliance issue. We discuss provider fit before presenting a file as ready for underwriting.
Provider-specific restrictions and review conditions
Travel is represented in Maverick and GOAT review categories. KURV travel addendum thresholds conflict within the saved matrix and must be confirmed rather than promised.
Eligibility in one provider’s matrix does not establish eligibility with another. Rules, products, transaction channels, and applicable law must be confirmed for the individual merchant. No approval, rate, reserve level, or funding timetable is guaranteed.
What Underwriters Typically Look For
Prepare these category-specific materials alongside formation, ownership, banking, website, and processing-history documents. Do not send sensitive documents through an initial public enquiry.
Documentation requirements vary by processing partner and business model. This list is a general guide, not a universal checklist.
