Question 3

What kind of inventory can our employees access through the tool?

Question 11

Admins can issue unlimited virtual corporate credit cards with unique numbers and specific spending limits. Because these corporate cards are often limited to a single transaction or date range, they inherently protect your main credit line.

Question 14

We operate on a transparent $10 per trip model for our corporate travel platform. A trip is defined as any number of flight or hotel legs booked together in a single session.

Question 17

Is there a more cost-effective payment option available?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Companies that use our pre-funded wallet for their travel and expense management processes qualify for a reduced trip fee of $7. This option avoids credit card processing surcharges and lowers your overall costs.

Question 18

Do we have to pay extra for onboarding or support?

Accepted Answer

No. Unlike traditional corporate travel management companies, we offer free implementation and onboarding. Additionally, our 24/7 human support is included in your standard trip fee with no hidden costs.

Question 19

How are the expense management licenses priced?

Accepted Answer

Our expense management software is priced based on active users, starting at $6 per month. You only pay for the employees who actually submit reports during that month, ensuring cost-efficient Travel and Expense Management.

Question 20

Are there fees for modifications or flight cancellations?

Accepted Answer

ITILITE does not charge any additional fees for changes or cancellations made through our corporate travel management solution. You are only responsible for the fare differences or penalties mandated by the airline or hotel.

Question 21

How quickly can we launch the platform for our team?

Accepted Answer

Without complex integrations, most companies can be up and running in three to five business days. Our onboarding team handles the heavy lifting, including bulk user uploads and policy configuration.

Question 22

Does your platform integrate with our existing HR system?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we offer plug-and-play integrations with leading systems like Workday, UKG Pro, and BambooHR, and many others. This automates user profile creation and deactivation, ensuring secure and efficient Travel and Expense Management.

What kind of training do you provide for our staff?

Accepted Answer

We provide comprehensive admin training sessions and a library of video tutorials for travelers. Our travel management software is designed to be intuitive, requiring minimal learning time for most users.

Question 25

Can we use the tool for personal travel bookings?

Accepted Answer

Yes, users can switch to a personal profile to book leisure trips using our corporate travel software. They can still access our negotiated rates, but these bookings remain private and separate from company reports.

Question 26

How does Mastermind help us save on travel spend?

Accepted Answer

Mastermind is an AI-driven tool that benchmarks your spending against industry data. It identifies missed savings in areas like last-minute bookings and out-of-policy trips, providing actionable insights for your Travel and Expense Management efforts.
