TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jan 8, 2014) - GuestLogix Inc. (TSX:GXI), the leading global provider of onboard retail and payment technology solutions to airlines and the passenger travel industry, today announced that the Company's Global Payment Gateway has recovered more than 1 million USD in previously declined credit card revenues for its airline and rail customers. The Company's unique payment gateway network enables GuestLogix' customers to significantly reduce fraudulent and declined credit card payments by utilizing the industry's leading fraud prevention tactics, including floor and ceiling limits, blacklist usage, proprietary "Hot List", card resubmission and mixed online/offline authorization. Such measures ensure that airlines and rail operators, as well as industry partners in the in-flight entertainment sector, maximize revenue generation both on and off-board, which translates into increased revenue for all stakeholders.

"Our flexible and certified Global Payment Gateway has enabled a substantial recovery of declined revenues that would have otherwise been lost for our customers," said GuestLogix President & CEO, Brett Proud. "As we surpass the one million dollar recovery mark, we acknowledge the positive impact that our solutions have had on our customers' bottom lines. This is a tremendous accomplishment, which demonstrates the Company's ability to recover initially declined funds and prevent fraudulent transactions from occurring - more than any other provider."

By leveraging the most advanced technology with the largest network of global relationships and payment certifications, the Company's Global Payment Gateway has enabled GuestLogix' customers to mitigate instances of credit card declines resulting from fraudulent activity, as well as insufficient funds. GuestLogix ensures that its end-to-end payment services meet the most stringent PCI Compliance Guidelines, to best protect the Company's customers and their passengers. GuestLogix has supported travel operators around the world with comprehensive payment services for their global operations, enabling the acceptance of magnetic stripe, Chip & PIN, contactless credit cards and NFC payment methods, including mobile payments.

"GuestLogix strongly believes in protecting the interests and revenue of its customers, and in doing so, we have implemented a wealth of preventative tactics to safeguard our clients' operations," said Ilia Kostov, EVP Global Sales & Product Strategy, GuestLogix. "Program data indicates that actual recoveries have reached as high as sixty percent of the funds previously lost at some customers. Our Global Payment Gateway is a no-risk option that enables our customers to attain a high return on investment, while reducing the cost of doing business."
