Travel better and smarter
Count on quality service to keep travelers moving and your business thriving. With personalized assistance and strong compliance standards, you’ll have many factors working to your advantage:
Robust privacy protection
Be confident that your sensitive travel data is protected by some of the world’s strictest legal frameworks. Protections are robust and thorough because of our status as a bank-holding company.
Customized trip approval
Through your own unique approval process, you can have an efficient way to protect your travelers’ well-being. For example, let’s say someone attempts to book an international flight to a high risk area. The booking can be routed to your risk department for approval and they can approve or deny trip before it gets ticketed.
Proactive disruption management
Travelers have an optimal way to bypass disruptions thanks to our message system – the most extensive automated and globally available trip assistance service in the travel industry. When a flight is delayed or cancelled, they’re notified ahead of time with flight status alerts and – in a few taps – can get rebooked on an alternate flight, through our traveler app.
Risk management technology
Since duty of care is a key concern, you’ll have a powerful tool that lets you pinpoint employees in transit and gauge their distance from potentially threatening situations, based on up-to-date insights from world news events. From a map on your dashboard, you can determine which employees are most at risk and reach out to them.
Personalized travel
Whether they’re booking a trip or heading home, travelers have an experience that’s all their own. They can get customized destination guidance and choose from the most suitable flight options. When they need help, they can get it through multiple chat platforms, email, or phone.
Dive deeper into a financial client’s success
When a leading financial enterprise came to us, they had multiple travel policies and more than half of their travelers were booking trips outside of policy. That all changed for the better with our support and technologies.
