Hotel Program
A hotel program involves corporate agreements with hotel chains to secure negotiated rates and perks, optimizing travel costs and employee experiences. Integrated with expense systems, it enforces preferred hotel usage, auto-categorizes bookings, and flags non-compliant stays for review. Negotiated rates can be uploaded or synced with booking tools, ensuring seamless reimbursements within policy limits. Customizable by region or department, the program supports detailed analytics on hotel spend and compliance. This enhances vendor negotiations, controls travel expenses, and ensures policy adherence while streamlining expense tracking and reporting.
