Getting paid across borders
Lanka Tour Experts designs private, custom tours for international visitors to Sri Lanka. Taking deposits and balances from overseas travellers means card payments that clear reliably and feel secure at the exact moment of booking — non-trivial for a tour operator working in Sri Lanka with foreign-issued cards and travellers who need to trust a checkout they've never seen before.
A gateway in 2022, MPGS in 2026
In 2022 we integrated an online card-payment gateway so the team could take card payments against bookings and send secure payment links. In June 2026 we upgraded that integration onto the Mastercard Payment Gateway Services (MPGS) API — a more robust, better-supported payment rail with stronger 3-D Secure authentication and a cleaner hosted checkout — future-proofing the operator's payments as card-scheme requirements tighten.
Payments that matured with the business
Lanka Tour Experts has a payments setup that has grown with it: a working gateway since 2022 and, from 2026, a modern MPGS-backed flow that is more secure and easier to maintain — so international guests can pay with confidence.
