Travel tech giant Amadeus has unveiled a new partnership with expenses specialist Emburse to promote each other’s products.
The deal, which was announced at Business Travel Show Europe in London on Wednesday (28 July), will see the two companies provide a “fully integrated solution” to new customers, as well as offering each other’s products to current customers.
Amadeus will promote Emburse’s Chrome River as an integrated expenses platform to clients in the UK, Scandinavia and the Benelux countries, as well as in the US. Conversely, Emburse will market Amadeus’ Cytric Travel and Cytric Easy for Microsoft Teams to its portfolio of travel spend management tools.
Eric Friedrichsen, CEO of Emburse, said: “Emburse and Amadeus have had data integrations for some time, and we share a number of high-profile customers, but with this partnership, we’re really taking things to the next level.
“The two companies offer a number of complementary solutions that span the entire business travel journey.”
Rudy Daniello, executive vice president of Amadeus Cytric Solutions, added that the partnership allowed the companies to “go beyond managing travel booking and expense”.
“By leveraging our two companies’ complementary strengths, we are greatly enhancing the traveller’s digital and mobile experience and corporations’ travel spend and policy management throughout the entire travel journey,” added Daniello.
