Shiji, IPORT partner to implement new payment solution

Cloud-based technology platform provider Shiji has joined forces with IPORT to launch a fully integrated, all-in-one tablet and payment solution designed for hotels and restaurants.

Built around the iPadOS ecosystem, this partnership integrates Shiji’s Daylight PMS, Infrasys POS, Meridian Experiences and Reviewpro Reputation solutions with IPORT’s modular hardware. 

“We’re proud to partner with IPORT to deliver a solution that aligns perfectly with the way modern hospitality operates,” Ryan King, SVP, Shiji in the Americas, said in a statement. “Hotels and restaurants need flexible, secure and scalable tools that can evolve with their service models. By integrating Shiji’s software with IPORT’s modular hardware, we’re helping hospitality teams create more mobile, efficient, and guest-focused experiences—without the need to overhaul their tech stack.”

“At IPORT, we design modular, enterprise-grade solutions that unlock the full potential of iOS in hospitality,” said Chris Lawson, head of sales & partnerships at IPORT. “Our collaboration with Shiji brings together best-in-class hardware and software to create seamless, mobile-first experiences for hotels and restaurants. Together, we’re empowering operators to move beyond legacy systems and embrace a more agile, guest-centric future.”

IPORT’s modular hardware supports a wide range of iOS devices (including iPad, iPad Pro, iPad Mini and iPhone) offering flexibility across hospitality environments. Through this collaboration, IPORT’s hardware works with a broad range of core Shiji solutions, ensuring that hotels can unify guest service, operations and reputation management across a single mobile platform, according to the company.

The integrated solution simplifies the payment process by working with multiple payment gateways as part of an effort to enable hoteliers to choose the system that best suits their needs. This reduces operational complexities, minimizes errors and saves valuable time and resources, according to the company. Furthermore, the company noted the use of iOS devices can ensure a familiar and reliable environment for staff, reducing the training curve and instilling confidence in IT teams regarding security and robustness.
