Inside Flix: processing payments for 80 million passengers
Join Revolut Business for an exclusive look at the financial engine behind a global travel-tech giant.
Operating in over 40 countries and moving 80 million passengers annually requires a highly complex payment operation. Flix has to bridge the gap between digital apps, e-commerce platforms, and the physical reality of ticketing, all while processing millions of transactions seamlessly.
When dealing with massive volumes of relatively low-ticket fares, even tiny payment processing fees or checkout friction can severely impact unit economics.
In this 45-minute masterclass, Anton Shapka, Payments Expert at Flix, will take us under the hood of how they orchestrate global payments, manage dynamic pricing, and utilise invisible payment infrastructure to protect margins and drive conversion at scale.
We will discuss:
Omnichannel Orchestration: How Flix balances digital checkouts with physical environments, managing massive transaction volumes across 40+ countries without breaking.
Protecting Margins at Scale: Specific strategies to keep acquiring costs down on millions of low-ticket fares so processing fees don't eat into the company's bottom line.
Dynamic Pricing & Ancillaries: How Flix balances giving customers enough time to pay versus quickly releasing unsold seats, while seamlessly capturing high-margin add-ons like luggage and flex passes.
The ROI of Invisible Payments: How integrating one-click digital wallets like Revolut Pay removes security hurdles, changes user behaviour, and drives measurable commercial value compared to manual card entry.
Cross-Border FX Strategy: How to structure the checkout to ensure passengers get transparent local pricing without the business absorbing heavy foreign exchange fees behind the scenes.
