Avinode Group (NBAA stand number 2219), parent of the world’s leading B2B online marketplace for business air charter, announced PayNode today, at NBAA, the world’s first end-to-end payment platform for business aviation. Working exclusively with American Express on its first product, PayNode will launch on 1 November 2016, with the ability for customers to pay directly for business charter flights via credit card. This will be followed shortly after by a comprehensive payment solution to include bank wire transfer payments.

Magnus Henriksson, Global Business Director, PayNode, says: “The payment procedure in business aviation is a true industry pain point: it is inefficient, costly and insecure, placing unnecessary strain on brokers and operators’ businesses, as well as giving customers insufficient protection of their payment details. PayNode is a solution which overcomes those barriers; anyone can use PayNode and it is free to sign up so brokers and operators can utilise the platform to save them time, money and risk.
Niklas Berg, CEO, Avinode Group, says: “The Avinode Group has transformed the way that business aviation brokers and operators connect and do business. We have been the market leader in developing new solutions to help the industry do business more efficiently and profitably. PayNode is an effective, robust and valuable solution for the industry, and we are proud to be leading the market in a new direction once again.”
