Accept International Credit Card Payments and Get Paid Into Your Caribbean Bank Account with Sentoo
If you run a tour, rental, or experience business in the Dutch Caribbean, you already know the struggle: international payment processors like Stripe and PayPal either don't support payouts to Caribbean bank accounts, or make you jump through hoops to get your money. You can see the bookings coming in from tourists around the world - but actually getting paid into your local bank account? That's where things break down.
That changes today. We're excited to announce that Roverd has integrated Sentoo as a payment option - so your international customers can pay by credit card, and you get paid directly into your local Caribbean bank account.
What Is Sentoo?
Sentoo is a digital payment platform built specifically for the Caribbean islands. It bridges the gap between international payments and local Caribbean banking - something that has been a pain point for businesses in the region for years.
Sentoo connects directly to local banks in Curaçao, Aruba, Bonaire, St. Maarten, Saba, and St. Eustatius. It accepts international credit cards, local debit cards, and local bank transfers (Pay by Bank) - and settles funds directly into your Caribbean bank account. No intermediary hoops, no waiting for international wire transfers.
Over 850 companies across the Dutch Caribbean already collect payments with Sentoo. Supported banks include MCB, CMB, Aruba Bank, Banco di Caribe, Orco Bank, and WIB, with more on the way.
Why This Matters for Your Business
Accept international credit cards, get paid locally
This is the big one. Tourists from the US, Europe, and beyond can pay for your tours and activities with their Visa, Mastercard, or other international credit card - and the money lands in your local Caribbean bank account. No need for a US or European bank account. No complicated foreign payment processor setup. Roverd + Sentoo handles it all.
No more payout headaches
With most international payment processors, Caribbean businesses either can't receive payouts at all, or face long settlement times and high fees to move money to their local bank. Sentoo eliminates that entirely. Your revenue goes where it belongs - your bank account on-island.
Reach local customers too
Sentoo doesn't just solve the international payment problem. Many locals and regional visitors prefer paying through their own bank. With Sentoo's Pay by Bank option, customers can pay directly from their local banking app in under 30 seconds - removing the "I don't have a credit card" barrier and opening your bookings to a much wider audience.
A smooth checkout experience
Whether your customer is a tourist paying by credit card or a local paying via bank transfer, Sentoo keeps things simple. Payment details are pre-filled, so there's no room for mistakes. Customers just review and approve - done in under 30 seconds. A frictionless checkout means fewer abandoned bookings.
It just works with Roverd
The integration is built right into your Roverd booking flow. When a customer books a tour, activity, or rental, they can choose Sentoo at checkout, complete the payment via their international credit card or local bank, and you'll see it confirmed in your dashboard - with funds settling into your Caribbean bank account.
