TravelPerk Product & Market Update - May 2022

You can now have much more control over invited users if you're an admin. Now you can set the role, travel policy, approval process, cost center and invoice profile at the point of invite. On top of that, you can also save these settings for any future invites.

More about inviting users

The travel restrictions information that you see when you search for a flight now includes a new "Fully vaccinated" toggle. This helpful new addition highlights information specific to your vaccination status at a glance, saving you from having to sift through information for all types of travelers.

Travelers can get a smooth pre-flight experience, no matter what device they are using. Our web portal now shows the same gate and terminal information that you are used to seeing on our mobile apps.

The rising demand for carbon offsets is driving up prices globally. To be able to continue buying certified carbon offsets, since May 1st, we have had to increase the price for carbon offsetting to €10/ton, which comes around to be ~0.9% of the total cost of a business trip.

Our vision for our marketplace is to expand the value our product delivers, through partnerships and integrations with other tools. This means more choice and a smoother experience for our customers. Say hello to our newest addition to our marketplace: Planetly, a leading carbon management company. This integration will automatically transfer all data about the carbon emissions of your company’s business trips from TravelPerk to Planetly, where they will be added to the emissions from your other company activities. This way you'll get real-time analyses of your company’s total carbon footprint.
