Can you believe it’s May already? In recent weeks we’ve released some nice improvements for our community around the globe.
Customers from all countries now have more control over the settings of their invited users, better travel requirements, and flight information. And we’ve also released expenses integrations for US, and Spain, and launched FlexiPerk in Mexico.
Finally, we haven’t forgotten our partners, who can make use of better vaccination information and create more trip-based functionality for their customers.
Updates for businesses
Have more granular control over invited users
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.

Better travel requirements information for vaccinated customers
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.
Gate and terminal information on any device
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.
Carbon offsetting price increased, but we continue to take no commission
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.
But our promise to you of zero commissions remains. All the money collected from GreenPerk, our no-commission carbon offsetting service, is invested in high-impact VERRA-accredited sustainability projects worldwide.

What if everyone traveled sustainably for one year?
Our Head of ESG at TravelPerk, James Dent, shows just how much of an impact a few small changes to our travel habits can have on the environment. His analysis answers questions like “What if we took trains instead of planes from London to Paris?”, “What if all flights from London to NYC used sustainable air fuel?”, “What if all hotels in the US only used renewable energy?”, “What if all car rentals in the EU were electric?”

Offer your customers better trip based features
For partners who want to take an action when a trip is created, such as setting per diem limits for a trip, waiting for the invoice before taking action could be too late. Our new trip webhook can help!
It will fire when a new trip is created or modified, meaning API developers can reduce the number of API calls they make and have a powerful new tool to make even better integrations with TravelPerk.
