At Bookinglayer, we are continually working on new partnerships to help our clients around the world do bookings better. As a result of our latest efforts, we’re excited to announce a brand-new payment integration: Bold.co, a trusted payment gateway designed specifically for merchants in Colombia.

Our integration with Bold.co marks another step toward empowering local operators with the tools they need to scale and grow. If you are a Colombia-based business that has struggled to set up a Stripe account or process online payments locally, this update is for you.

Why This Matters

Until now, some Colombian businesses faced hurdles accepting payments online, especially those unable to access international payment providers. With Bold, Bookinglayer users in Colombia can now:

  • Accept payments directly in Colombian Pesos (COP) and US Dollars (USD)

  • Offers a secure, reliable checkout process for guests booking retreats, camps, or experiences

  • Get started easily, without the need for a Stripe account

Whether you’re running a surf camp in Cartagena, a yoga retreat in Medellín, or a wellness lodge in the Andes, you can now manage everything — bookings, payments, and guest communication — all in one platform.

Start Using Bold

To activate Bold as your payment gateway:

1. Log in to your Bookinglayer account

2. Head to Settings → Payments

3. Select Bold.co and follow the setup instructions

That’s it! Your guests will now be able to pay seamlessly through Bold.

If you’re new to Bookinglayer and want to start taking payments with Bold, book a demo or get in touch, and we’ll help you start doing bookings better.
