Report Overview

One of the major benefits airlines enjoy when subscribing to the Nium Card powered by UATP is receiving any amounts due by online travel agencies (OTAs) much quicker than other payment methods. Using the Nium Card powered by UATP, Airlines will no longer need to use Agent Debit Memos (ADMs), as Nium will affect a bank transfer to your account daily. To help your back-office teams understand what this daily amount is made of, the Nium Card powered by UATP offers the Airline Settlement Report. The report is generated daily and comprises a list of transactions (purchases and refunds) we processed during the previous day.

We want to ensure that payments on the Nium Card powered by UATP are as transparent as possible. The Airline Settlement Report breaks down each transaction into multiple columns, which show important details such as the card number and exact amount you receive, together with the OTA incentive and settlement fee. In addition, we also include the Passenger Name Record (PNR) and Ticket Number. These will allow your back-office teams to easily reconcile each airline ticket with a transaction.

To download the report, please use the SFTP connection provided by our Customer Delivery team during your onboarding. In case of any issues, feel free to contact us at [email protected]

What follows is a reference guide of all the details you will find in the Airline Settlement Report.
