For many employees, business travel is synonym with stress. Long travel times, delays, adverse travel connections, poor or non-existent access to WiFi and payment issues are some of difficulties they are faced with. The more frequently and longer they travel, the bigger the burden. As a result corporate travel management’s focus on stress-free business travel becomes all the more important: Usage must be straightforward. The new cooperation between AirPlus International and Acomodeo makes it possible. There are two main components:
1. Access to 400,000 serviced apartments worldwide. This not only reduces the stress for business travelers, but also significantly reduces the workload for the travel agencies of companies.
Acomodeo, the leading digital provider of serviced apartments, offers a booking platform with access to over 400,000 validated, professional serviced apartments located in 120 countries. Individual account management is always included for every business customer, which makes finding the right apartment even easier.
2. AirPlus simplifies the payment process while increasing its transparency: AirPlus, a leading international provider of solutions for the day-to-day management of business travel with 50,000 corporate customers worldwide, now also greatly simplifies the payment of serviced apartments booked through Acomodeo. With the AirPlus Virtual Card, which functions like a corporate credit card, but just for the payment of a single transaction,the payment experience becomes easy, central and quick. Making use of the Virtual Card number, business travelers can now pay for their bookings in advance through Acomodeo’s booking platform and stop worrying about their travel expenses.
For Eric-Jan Krausch, Acomodeo’s founder and CEO, this cooperation is a big step towards
painless, stress-free travel management. “As serviced apartments at Acomodeo are booked for
an average length of 77 nights, usually high costs are also involved, that previously could lead to
billing and payment issues. That is why we are thrilled about our cooperation with AirPlus for the
integration of its payment solutions in our booking platform, as now our corporate customers
can book and pay for serviced apartments even faster and easier, all within their travel policy.”
