The most significant strategic investment in Onyx’s history, OnyxPay strengthens the infrastructure behind a global network of more than 150,000 hotel properties and 200,000 travel booking providers across more than 160 countries, processing over $2 billion in payments annually. It creates a foundation for expanded payment capabilities and more connected experiences across that network. “Transforming hospitality payments requires a rebuild of the infrastructure that hotels and agencies depend on every day,” said Scott Gutz, chief executive officer of Onyx CenterSource. ” Onyx's Q2 2026 global commission data report found that hotel commission payments averaged 41 days.

Fragmented information, manual reconciliation, and repeated status checks continue to complicate the process. OnyxPay gives agencies transaction-level visibility, grouped-payment tracking, and data exports for integration, matching and reconciliation. Hotels gain real-time funding and payment status, current and historical information, and many tools to flag issues and enable actions in one portal. Hotels can fund and agencies can receive payments at frequencies that suit their businesses.

Role-based access, approval workflows, and a full audit log support accountability. The result is faster cycle times, fewer disputes and faster resolution. OnyxPay uses AI-assisted entity matching to identify when different names and records refer to the same hotel or agency, reducing duplication and manual investigation. Onyx’s advantage comes from its global network, which brings together data from both hotels and travel agencies.

Combined with decades of hospitality payment expertise, this visibility into both sides of the commission relationship provides a foundation for more intelligent matching and expanded exception identification. “Our focus with OnyxPay is to make commission payments easier to manage for the people who work with them every day,” said Steve Reynolds, chief technology officer at Onyx CenterSource. "That means bringing information together, making payment status easier to understand, and reducing the manual effort required to resolve questions. ” Customer onboarding begins this month through a phased migration.

Access and feature availability will expand through subsequent rollout phases.
