The Travel Agent Next Door (TTAND) is rolling out a new payment option that lets travellers spread out the cost of their vacations.

The company has partnered with Upgrade Inc. to offer Flex Pay — a Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) solution — across all products sold by its partner agents. 

The financing tool allows clients to pay for trips in fixed monthly installments, with terms ranging from three to 24 months.

“We are very pleased to offer this solution for our agent partners,” said TTAND’s Chief Operating Officer Jeff Element. 

“Travellers booking through TTAND agents can now pay via Flex Pay with easy, monthly installments – allowing them to spread the cost of their vacations over time.”

Flex Pay works with more than 750 travel brands.

Rates and terms will vary depending on the customer’s profile.
