Case Study: LaPlaya Beach & Golf Resort achieves paper-check elimination and rebate revenue with Edenred Pay

Luxury hotel replaces paper checks with CSI Paysystems and discovers new efficiencies and revenue

LaPlaya Beach & Golf Resort, a luxury beachfront hotel in Naples, FL, was still running accounts payable on paper checks, spending hours reconciling outstanding checks and tracking down lost payments. To modernize payables and capture rebate revenue, the resort engaged Edenred Pay’s payables solution.

Edenred Pay implemented a digital payables system (replacing paper checks), providing complete visibility, on-time payments and automation — after some initial customization supported by Edenred Pay’s implementation team. The move freed accounting time, created a new revenue stream from rebates and delivered measurable 2014 results: $2,987,294 spend captured, $22,850 saved from eliminated checks, $29,873 rebate earned and a total annual return of $52,723.
