Porter Airlines is introducing more payment options for travellers and travel agents when purchasing flights on the carrier's website.
In partnership with Ingenico, Porter is introducing PayPal and WeChat as payment methods, with new channels being considered for the future.
In addition, the airline will also be allowing monthly payment installments for purchases of CAD $300 or more with the introduction of Uplift. When booking, the total cost of the trip along with the monthly payment amount are both displayed.
"Customers are adopting new ways of making purchases and we want to give them more choices when shopping with Porter," said Kevin Jackson, executive vice president and chief commercial officer, Porter Airlines. "These options provide the budget flexibility and convenience many people are looking for."
Travel professionals may select payment financing for their clients when making a booking.
