Metta Voyage Expands Local Banking Access to 5 Global Markets | Metta Voyage

We are making it easier for our international travel partners to work with Metta Voyage.

Following the launch of our local banking setup in Australia, Metta Voyage has now expanded local banking access to five additional markets:

USA | UK | UAE | Israel | Hong Kong

This expansion gives our international partners more convenient local payment options when booking Vietnam and Southeast Asia travel services with Metta Voyage.

More local access. Less payment friction.

Our goal is simple: to make it easier for travel professionals to send requests, confirm bookings, and manage payments wherever they are based.

Alongside our local banking accounts, we continue to support international payment solutions for our global partners.

What local banking access means for travel partners

Paying a supplier abroad by international wire can take several days and often involves intermediary bank charges and currency conversion on both sides. With a local account in your market, you can settle deposits and balances with Metta Voyage by a domestic bank transfer, which is usually simpler to process for your finance team and easier to reconcile against each booking.

Our team will send you the account details for your market on request. International payment options remain available for partners in other countries.

Working with Metta Voyage as a trade partner

Metta Voyage is a licensed international tour operator (licence 01-1167/2023/CDLQGVN-GP LHQT) based in Vietnam. We have operated more than 2,000 international bookings for over 10,100 guests, and we design private, tailor-made programmes across Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Myanmar. For travel agencies and tour operators, our main terms are:

  • Net rates: you add your own margin.
  • 1 FOC per 16 paid rooms for groups.
  • 30% deposit to confirm, with the balance due 45 days before arrival.
  • Your clients stay yours: we never contact your clients directly, and travel documents carry your branding.
  • Language and dietary needs: Guides who speak your language (Italian, German, Spanish, French, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, Russian, Portuguese and more; subject to availability outside Vietnam), and halal, kosher or Indian vegetarian meals, on request.

How to get started

If you are a travel professional in the USA, UK, UAE, Israel, Hong Kong or Australia and would like to use the local payment option, or to start working with us, write to [email protected] with your company name and market. Our partnership team will reply with our trade terms, sample itineraries and the bank details for your country.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to use the local account?

No. The local accounts are an extra option; you can continue to pay by international transfer if that suits your company better.

Are the payment terms the same in every market?

Yes. The 30% deposit and the balance 45 days before arrival apply wherever you are based; only the way you transfer the money changes.

Can my clients pay Metta Voyage directly?

Bookings made through a trade partner are invoiced to the partner. We do not contact or invoice your clients directly.

At Metta Voyage, we are committed to making cooperation with our DMC and tour operator services across Southeast Asia more convenient, flexible, and accessible for travel professionals worldwide.
