Yes—there are tools in the airline/travel pricing and markup space that can handle GDS connectivity and also support secure payments, though the exact combination depends on whether you mean:

  1. A pricing/markup engine for OTA or travel agency use, or
  2. An airline retail/pricing engine with distribution and payments capabilities.

Common categories of solutions

1) Travel pricing / markup engines with GDS integration

These typically connect to systems like Amadeus, Sabre, and Travelport and let you:

  • apply markups, commissions, fees, or dynamic pricing rules
  • manage channels, markets, customer segments, or supplier-specific pricing
  • sometimes bundle ancillaries or package pricing

Examples in the broader market include:

  • AirGateway
  • Travelfusion
  • TBO / API aggregators
  • Duffel (more offer/order focused than classic markup engine)
  • Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport partner ecosystems

2) Secure payment platforms used alongside pricing engines

Secure payments are often handled by a separate module or integrated payment layer. Common capabilities include:

  • PCI DSS compliance
  • tokenization
  • 3DS / SCA support
  • virtual cards / card vaults
  • fraud screening
  • support for split payments, refunds, and reconciliation

Common providers used in travel include:

  • Adyen
  • Worldpay
  • Checkout.com
  • Stripe
  • Nuvei
  • CellPoint Digital
  • Fly Now Pay Later / BNPL options depending on use case

Platforms that combine both more directly

Some travel commerce platforms combine:

  • inventory access / booking APIs,
  • pricing/markup rules,
  • checkout and payment orchestration.

These are often positioned as:

  • travel retailing platforms
  • booking engines
  • offer and order management platforms
  • payment orchestration platforms for travel

What to look for in a vendor

If you want both GDS and secure payments, ask for:

  • direct GDS certification or certification via aggregator
  • dynamic pricing/markup rules
  • PCI DSS Level 1 compliance
  • tokenized card storage
  • 3DS2 / SCA support
  • chargeback/fraud tools
  • support for multi-currency and settlement

If you want, I can give you:

  • a shortlist of vendors by category,
  • a comparison table,
  • or recommendations based on your model: OTA, corporate travel, airline, or travel agency.
