Travel solutions built by business travellers. We know the real business travel challenges: booking for teams, chasing approvals, fighting with clunky software. That’s why we started TruTrip — to fix the broken parts of business travel and make the whole thing easier, smarter, and way less painful.

We’re based in Singapore, with teams in Malaysia and Indonesia. Since 2019, we’ve helped businesses across Southeast Asia modernize their travel, especially in markets where most solutions still feel stuck in the 2010s.

We’re not trying to be everything for everyone. We’re focused on helping real companies solve real travel problems — like these:

1. Bulk onboarding that’s built for ops

Uploading or editing users shouldn’t take all day. With TruTrip, you just send us a CSV and we’ll process updates for you on the backend. Great for companies managing large teams, high turnover, or seasonal travel needs.

2. Multi-currency billing for multi-entity setups

multi currency

Have different legal entities across countries? TruTrip supports invoicing in multiple currencies, so each business unit gets billed in the right one. No more conversion headaches or explaining foreign invoices to Finance.

3. Pay later with GoFluid

We’ve teamed up with GoFluid to offer invoice-based billing — think of it as “Buy Now, Pay Later” for corporate travel. No upfront credit card required, and flexible repayment terms. Helps companies maintain cash flow without slowing down travel plans.

4. Carbon tracking that makes reporting easy

Need to meet ESG goals or just want to see the carbon impact of your travel? Our carbon footprint dashboard — powered by Squake — gives you per-trip CO₂ data and exportable reports. Ideal for sustainability reporting, audits, or company green initiatives.

5. Fast approvals

fast approval

Let’s be honest — most trip requests are routine. So we made it easy for managers to approve them instantly, right from the request screen. Fewer bottlenecks. Faster travel bookings. Happier teams.

6. Smarter accommodation policies

You can now set rules for hotel bookings based on length of stay, accommodation type, day of the week, or review score — all without manual enforcement. Keeps travel within policy, without making travelers jump through hoops.

7. Labels that help you stay organise

Assign labels like “Marketing”, “Indonesia office”, or “Q3 Planning” to any trip. Travelers can add them during booking, and managers can filter reports by label. Super useful for cost centers, project billing, and reporting. Learn more about how labels can help here.

8. Shareable hotel pages

Travelers can now send direct links to specific hotel listings — complete with pricing and dates. No more hunting through search results to find “that one place HR mentioned.” A small feature, but a big time-saver — and one that most platforms miss.

9. Corporate rates that show up automatically

If your company has negotiated special hotel or flight rates, we can plug them into TruTrip. Your travelers will see these prices marked clearly when searching. Saves money and makes it easier to stick to preferred vendors. Learn more about how to request and add corporate rates here.

10. Lowest logical fare, not just cheapest

Cheapest doesn’t always mean smartest. We now rank flight results based on cost, duration, and logic — helping travelers make better choices. Avoids the 2-layover red-eye mistake that saves $10 but costs a workday.

11. Fare benchmarking for better approvals

We log the top alternative flight options at time of booking and show them during approval. Managers get context on why a flight was picked — no second-guessing needed. Adds transparency without adding more work.

12. Designed for all travel types, not just frequent flyers

Not everyone in your company travels every week. Some only book once a quarter. Others organize group retreats. TruTrip supports all of that — without forcing a one-size-fits-all flow. With our 24/7 support, APAC and especially SEA localized expertised. 

Concierge support, group booking help, flexible tools — all built-in.
