Sharfin designed and built our new website to enable us to accept online payments. The new website looks amazing and navigating around it so simple compared to what we had before. Sharfin and his team have always been available when we have required any technical support or assistance.
Hotel website design with direct booking payments
Direct bookings on your own site with a deposit or full payment, so fewer rooms go through commission charging booking sites. Card payments built in.
*Approval time depends on how quickly we receive your documents. Free website for trading businesses processing £5k a month or more on card with our in-house payments, with start-ups looked at case by case. Pay monthly from £50 otherwise.
Can hotel businesses take card payments online?
A hotel direct booking website lets guests check availability and book rooms on the hotel's own site, paying a deposit or the full stay at booking. eCom Pro builds hotel websites with card payments built in, so direct bookings settle next working day.

Paying commission on rooms guests would book direct?
Booking sites charge a commission on every room, including guests who already knew your name. A direct booking website with a better rate for booking direct wins those guests back.
- Website and payments handled together, by one team
- Payments usually live within 24 hours*
- Next working day settlement, including specialist sectors
- Already declined or closed elsewhere? Tell us on the form, it changes nothing about how we build

Free for trading businesses above £5k a month on card with our in-house payments, with start-ups looked at case by case. Pay monthly below it or for a custom build. Already have a site you like? Use our payments on their own.
Payments ready, vetted by our payments specialists
Before launch, the same people who handle your payments setup review your hotel website and ask for any changes your business needs. Every business is looked at individually, which is why we never publish a checklist and never build to one. The site and the payments go live together.
One form starts your website build and your payments.
We check the site as it is built, so nothing is left to chance at launch.
Payments handled in house, usually live within 24 hours* of your documents arriving. Paid the next working day.
Done all our website. It now accepts payments and it was very complex. Reachable at all sorts of odd hours, and had a very simple journey with sharfin. Highly recommend them and their expertise.
Sharfin was an absolute pro. Took time to really try to understand our needs and propose solutions which fit our budget and timescales. He made smart suggestions without being pushy but improving the plan so we didn't waste time or resources on things we don't need.
Every hotel website we build is checked by people who work with the sector every day, so the pages a payment provider reads are right first time. Payments are handled in house, so there is no separate application to chase.
Hotel website and payment questions
The questions founders ask before they apply, including the ones about Stripe, PayPal and Shopify Payments.
How do hotel customers pay on the website?
Card, Apple Pay and Google Pay, paid to you the next working day. Deposits, balances and pay by link are available where your business needs them.
Can I take deposits?
Yes. Take a deposit at booking or checkout and the balance later, automatically or by pay by link, with cancellation terms built into the site.
Can I switch from my current payment provider?
Yes, without rebuilding. We connect our in-house payments alongside your current provider, test it, then switch over at a time you choose.
How quickly can I start taking payments?
Usually live within 24 hours* of your documents arriving, because payments are handled in house. There is no separate application to chase.
Is the hotel website free?
Free for ecommerce businesses already trading and taking £5k a month or more on card with our in-house payments. Start-ups are looked at case by case. Below that, pay monthly websites start at £50 a month plus VAT and include the same payments and review.
