Introducing Trust Protects

What is Trust Protects?

Trust Protects is a customer-facing validation of financial protection for your customer’s payments. More than ever, travellers want proof that their money is safe when they book. When the COVID-19 pandemic began in early 2020, traveller trust declined suddenly and dramatically. Understandably, many travellers who were stung by the issues with refunds and will feel anxious about booking trips once again. Trust Protects allows travellers to confirm their payment is 100% protected, giving them peace of mind that their money is safe. If a traveller has booked with a travel provider that uses Trust Protects, they can check the protection at any time using the Transaction Search Tool.
