Traxo said that its itinerary parsing an processing technology enables travelers to forward confirmation emails for off-platform bookings when embedded in the WorldMobile app. It also gives access to reservation details for bookings made directly with via World Travel.
More than 40 percent or more of corporate travel books happen outside the typical corporate agency channel, Traxo said. Travelers can be challenged to manage trip details when several of the trips are not integrated into their corporate agency booking tools, Traxo said.
The integration provides clients and travelers with a secure, single application to manage travel profiles and “end-to-end” itinerary details, Traxo said.
