How one travel company took the stress out of travel booking for its customers

Tickets Travel Network (TTN) is one of the biggest online travel marketplaces in Europe.

They help travellers find and book everything from flights and trains to hotels and travel insurance, all in one place. Travellers can compare services from different providers and pick what suits them best via TTN localised websites.

With offices in Poland, Estonia, and Ukraine, TTN runs operations in 25 countries. So far, they’ve powered over 50 million trips and handle around 30 million travel searches every day.

Optimising for Scale and Seamless Booking Experience

As a growing travel marketplace, TTN works with many partners and handles a large volume of transactions. This requires a payment setup that can easily scale across geographies, currencies, and providers — while keeping the user experience smooth and efficient.

With millions of searches and bookings happening daily, even small inefficiencies in payment processing can impact customer satisfaction and internal workflows. TTN aimed to further streamline their multi-step payment process — from collecting customer payments to managing commission splits and partner payouts — and continue delivering a fast, seamless experience for every traveller.

They were also looking to simplify backend operations such as reconciliation, which were becoming increasingly time-consuming as their business scaled globally.

A Faster, Simpler Way to Book and Manage Millions of Trips Around the World

By working closely with the TTN team, we quickly pinpointed the tools that could fix the friction and keep travellers moving: Open Banking Payments & Payouts. Often referred to as pay-by-bank, customers can check out using their own bank—no typing out card details for customers, and no expensive card network fees for merchants.

Pay-by-bank is quick at checkout but also offers near-instant settlement, reducing order abandonment and boosting revenues, which is so important for online travel sales. Even better, open banking payouts are just as smooth. TTN can pay out their travel partners quickly and securely.

Noda’s Open Banking API is easy to integrate and connects to 2,000+ banks across 28 countries—including 250 in Europe, 215 in Canada, and 149 in Brazil. It supports multiple currencies like EUR, GBP, and CAD, with localised checkout in multiple languages—exactly what TNN needed to serve travellers globally.

Open Banking also helped TTN simplify reconciliation. They now receive daily settlements for the previous day’s transactions, speeding up the process and making it easier to settle with their travel partners every day.

Why Leading Travel Platforms Explore Open Banking Solutions

Digital-native travellers expect fast, seamless, and secure payment experiences — especially when booking across borders. According to Hilton’s Global Survey, 80% of travellers now prefer a fully digital booking process. For travel platforms operating across multiple markets, flexibility, localised options, and instant confirmations are key to keeping customers happy.

Forward-looking companies like TTN are exploring open banking to meet those expectations — offering their users a faster way to pay, while also improving back-office efficiency. By enabling real-time bank payments and streamlining operations like payouts and reconciliation, open banking has become a valuable addition to the payment stack for modern travel platforms.

For travellers, there’s something exciting coming too.

If you’ll be using Noda to pay for your next trip, we’ve got a little surprise — and we’ll be sharing more very soon.
