Multi-Currency Hospitality: Unifying Stripe, Khalti, eSewa & Cash

The Reality of Global Hospitality Payments

In international tourist destinations, travelers arrive with international credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Amex), while domestic travelers prefer regional digital wallets like Khalti, eSewa, UPI, or local QR standards.

Historically, hotel accounting teams had to reconcile multiple disconnected physical POS terminals, paper receipts, online gateway dashboards, and cash drawers at the end of every night shift.

1. Unified Ledger Architecture

UnlockInn was built with a unified multi-currency transaction engine. Whether a guest pays a deposit via Stripe in USD, pays for dinner at the restaurant via Khalti in NPR, or settles room service in cash at checkout, every line item links directly to the reservation's master folio.

• **Live Exchange Rates:** Accurate conversion tracking for accounting clarity.
• **Split Invoicing:** Easily split bills across room shares, corporate expense accounts, and incidentals.
• **Instant Tax Invoices:** One-click automated PDF tax invoices compliant with local VAT and sales tax regulations.

2. Secure Card-on-File and Pre-Authorizations

Protecting your business against no-shows and unpaid damages requires compliant card tokenization. By integrating Stripe Card Vaults, hotels can pre-authorize deposits during reservation creation and capture incidental charges smoothly without storing sensitive raw PAN numbers.
