SUNRATE, the global payment and treasury management platform, announced a new alliance with international travel-technology provider Juniper Travel Technology, underscoring both companies' commitment to empowering the future of global travel commerce.

As part of this joint effort, Juniper will integrate SUNRATE's cross-border payment and commercial card issuing capabilities into its travel-technology ecosystem. This will enable travel companies — such as tour operators, OTAs, wholesalers, DMCs, bed banks, and accommodation suppliers — to:

  • Issue and settle cards in more than 15 currencies
  • Set smart spending limits to ensure full control and prevent overspending
  • Mitigate fraud with customisable security settings to prevent unauthorised transactions
  • Generate real-time transaction statements, catering to varying reconciliation needs
  • Optimise FX costs and mitigate exchange-rate risks
  • Collect business payments in more than 30 currencies

"Travel companies operate in one of the most globally interconnected industries, where payments and FX can become a bottleneck," said Paul Batchelor, Head of Business Development, Europe at SUNRATE. "By partnering with Juniper, we are bringing together world-class travel technology and next-generation cross-border payment infrastructure to help travel businesses scale seamlessly worldwide."

Toni Reina, Partnerships Director at Juniper added: "We are pleased to partner with SUNRATE to offer our clients a more efficient, transparent and global way to manage supplier payments. Integrating SUNRATE's capabilities into our platform enhances the value we provide and strengthens our commitment to digital innovation."

This new cooperation is expected to be rolled out to customers progressively, with further product expansions planned throughout 2026 and beyond. As the travel ecosystem grows increasingly digital and interconnected, the collaboration is set to position both SUNRATE and Juniper to deliver end-to-end solutions that will streamline global bookings, supplier management and cross-border financial operations.
