Strategic Vision for a Multi-Channel Future
“This partnership with Traverse is part of a secular shift toward a multi-channel future where companies and travelers expect seamless tools and services no matter how they book,” said Andres Fabris, CEO of Traxo. “This collaboration plugs critical visibility gaps in direct booking channels, bringing them to parity with services that TMCs have provided for decades. By prioritizing interoperability and meeting travelers where they are, we enable organizations to enhance duty of care, ensure compliance, and optimize spend — all while empowering suppliers to interface directly with corporate buyers.”
“Traverse teaming up with Traxo, we’re not just bridging gaps—we’re building intelligent solutions to escape the outdated jungle of corporate travel tech,” said Michael Harbin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Traverse Technologies. “This partnership fuses our innovative spirit with a shared mission to deliver value, choice, and efficiency, empowering buyers and suppliers to traverse from legacy systems to a dynamic, multi-channel universe. We’re stripping away the unnecessary layers, unleashing flexibility, and proving that modern travel management can be powerful, collaborative, and—dare we say it—a little fun delivering direct experiences travel managers and their travelers will value.”
Sarah Hayden, Global Travel Lead at ZS, stated, “Having partnered with Traxo and Traverse Technologies separately, I’m excited about today’s announcement, which combines their two
exceptional capabilities. This integration makes it easier for corporate buyers to leverage these
