Corporate travelers can save up to 20% on travel spend

Emburse Reshop rebooks a hotel reservation if a better deal is found between the time you book and when you travel

Travel managers and business travelers will have the opportunity to drive down travel spend following an agreement to integrate Emburse Reshop with Amadeus Cytric. This advancement will enable users to access hotel shopping and rebooking services from Emburse Reshop directly throughCytric.

With Emburse Reshop, travelers can opt in to allow the technology to rebook the reservation if a better deal is found, for the same hotel, or those nearby. This will save travelers time and hassle and ensure they get the best value for their hotel stay.

Steve Reynolds, Chief Strategy Officer, Emburse, says: “With corporate travel managers under pressure to drive value, Emburse Reshop helps travelers further optimize their travel dollars by leveraging its cluster technology to identify similar quality, less expensive hotels within a reasonable radius of the original hotel. By empowering travelers to make the right decision, i.e. accepting the lower rate, cost savings are increased beyond what they can already accomplish in core reshop solutions."

The integration, which is also available through Cytric, will allow travel managers to leverage analytics and reporting tools through Emburse Reshop to track and optimize hotel spend and policy compliance. This will offer more visibility and control over travel programs and help identify and implement cost-saving opportunities.

Mark Cullen, Chief Commercial Officer, Amadeus Cytric Solutions, comments: “Business travel is a major expense for many companies and this integration is an opportunity to optimize travel programs and reduce costs. Emburse and Cytric are two leading travel solutions providers, offering smart and flexible tools for managing travel bookings, policies, and preferences. We are delighted to further combine the joint offering.”

Cytric allows travelers to book flights, hotels, cars and trains from a single interface, and with Cytric Easy, to access their travel itinerary, documents and notifications on Microsoft Teams. The tool integrates with the calendar, email, and corporate policy of a traveler and provides real-time updates on travel disruptions, delays and alternatives.

The Emburse Reshop and Cytric integration was unveiled during the Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) Convention 2024 in Atlanta. It is the next step in a widerpartnership between the two travel technology leaders.
