2. Cut out TMC Fees

Typically, a traditional travel management company will charge a hotel booking fee for each booking made through their platform. Some TMCs also charge additional fees for subsequent changes to bookings or cancellations, meaning that one booking may be subject to multiple fees.

Unlike other TMCs, Roomex operates on a commission-based model, meaning hotels and venues pay us commission for completed bookings that we place with them. That means Roomex doesn’t pass on any fees to you. This means no hotel booking, cancellation, or booking amendment fees when you book accommodation through Roomex.

3. Cut admin time

We know how important your time is, that’s why we have created a platform that offers you more than just monetary savings. Between rate comparisons, keeping track of bookings across different sites and last minute booking amendments, many travel managers barely have time to think. On top of all of that is the time spent on receipt collection, expense reconciliation and traveller reimbursement by the finance team.

That’s why we worked with our customers to develop a specialised all-in-one booking platform. Using one platform, Roomex clients can book, manage, and report on all of their travel and expenses, with one monthly invoice. This means less time spent browsing travel sites and reconciling traveller expenses and more time spent on the work you want to focus on!

Roomex-Negotiated-Rates

4. Roomex Negotiated Rates

Roomex offers customers the largest variety of workforce accommodation for employees worldwide, with over 2 million properties available globally and access to thousands of exclusive, unmatched Roomex Rates.

With the broadest and deepest range of accommodations globally, from low-cost self-catering apartments to workforce-suitable hotels. Roomex has you covered. Many of these accommodations feature workforce-focused amenities such as secure parking and flexible check-in options. And if we don’t have an exclusive rate at your most booked hotels? Our Savings Team will work with you personally to deliver you the best rates possible at all of your favourite destinations!

5. Allowances

Save time and money by switching from traditional expenses to Roomex allowances. Allowances allow your travellers to securely and simply pay with the RoomexPay card or app and take a picture of the receipt to instantly claim the expense. This means no more submitting expense reports, sifting through receipts at the end of a trip or waiting for expenses to be reimbursed.

Did you know traditional expenses could be costing you 5% of your annual revenue and up to 23% higher costs per traveller? Under traditional expensing, expense fraud costs businesses on average 5% of their revenue annually, while travelling employees who are non-compliant with company travel policies could be increasing your travel costs by as much as 23% per traveller. Allowances help you combat both of these issues by providing you with full control over employee spending and real-time visualisation of purchases. Reducing your overall costs, while providing a seamless, modern payment solution.
