Virtual Cards for Lodging
The Challenge: Solving Workforce Lodging Payment Problems
Traditional payment methods exposed Frontier Lodging to fraud, delays, and inefficiencies. Like many workforce travel providers, Frontier needed a more secure and efficient hotel payment solution. Traditional corporate cards created fraud risk, reconciliation issues, and check-in delays—prompting the need for a smarter approach with virtual payments. These issues didn’t just frustrate travelers—they impacted compliance and productivity.
Key challenges included:
Credit card fraud risk from shared or misused physical cards
Manual reconciliation between hotel folios and bookings
Check-in delays caused by mismatched names on corporate cards
Virtual payments offered a scalable way to reduce risk and streamline workforce lodging operations.
By switching to graspPAY’s virtual card solution, Frontier replaced physical cards with single-use, merchant-restricted virtual cards that:
Match the traveler’s name for seamless check-in
Limit charges to hotel-specific vendors
Enable automated reconciliation tied to each booking
graspPAY was deployed across both corporate and agency bookings, providing flexibility at scale.
The Solution

Faster, cleaner reconciliation for finance teams
Better traveler experiences with no check-in delays
Broad adoption across North America’s remote lodging markets
graspPAY’s configurable controls and fraud prevention features have transformed Frontier’s hotel payment workflows—making them simple, secure, and scalable.
