# For Hotels & Accommodation Providers

> Learn how hotels use PCI Booking to receive tokenized card data from OTAs, display card details securely, process charges, and manage CVV data.

# For Hotels & Accommodation Providers

PCI Booking helps hotels and accommodation providers handle guest payment cards without managing PCI DSS compliance in-house. When an OTA or booking channel sends you a tokenized card, PCI Booking lets you view the card details securely, process charges through your preferred gateway, and manage CVV data according to your retention policies.

Instead of receiving raw card numbers (which would put you in PCI scope), you receive tokens that PCI Booking converts into real card data only when needed, such as at the point of charge or when displaying the card to authorized staff.

## Typical Hotel Workflows

* **Receive and display**: An OTA sends a booking with a token. Your front desk staff views the card through a secure display form. See [Card Display](/use-tokens/card-display).
* **Receive and charge**: Use the token to charge the guest's card through your payment gateway at check-in or check-out. See [Charge](/use-tokens/charge).
* **CVV capture for charges**: If the CVV was not stored or has expired, send a secure link to the guest to recapture it. See [CVV Capture](/capture-cards/cvv-capture).

## Testing Your Integration

Validate your setup using PCI Booking's sandbox environment before processing real guest cards. See [Testing and Going Live](/getting-started/testing-and-going-live).
