PayPal is enhancing its app by partnering with Selfbook, allowing users to search and book hotels with convenient in-app payments. Users can enjoy discounts and even use PayPal's Buy Now, Pay Later option for specific hotels. This collaboration aims to streamline the traditionally fragmented hotel booking process by integrating payment directly into travel-search platforms. The move is directed at increasing user engagement and capitalizing on a growing trend towards digital payments in the travel sector.
"Paying for a hotel has traditionally been the most fragmented part of travel-search one place, book another, pay somewhere else. With PayPal, we're collapsing all of that into a single flow embedded directly into AI-powered experiences like Perplexity."
"With our payment products, we have observed an 84% uptick among people who pay online for travel, signaling a significant shift in consumer behavior towards digital payment methods."
