Navan deepens API integration with Booking.com
Expanded inventory and pricing flexibility signal tighter platform-to-platform collaboration
Navan has announced an enhanced API integration with Booking.com designed to unlock broader accommodation inventory and more flexible pricing for business travelers. The updated connection brings additional lodging options, including properties in less traditional business destinations, directly into Navan’s travel and expense platform. It also enables the stacking of Booking.com mobile discounts with Navan’s closed user group rates. The companies position the integration as a foundation for further functionality aimed at improving business travel relevance and usability.

- Combined pricing benefits: Travelers can access Booking.com mobile discounts alongside Navan’s closed user group pricing, potentially improving value for corporate bookings.
- Streamlined payments: The integration simplifies the payment flow for Booking.com bookings made through the Navan platform.
- Business travel positioning: Booking.com highlights access to “work-friendly” hotels and homes, reinforcing its relevance to corporate travel use cases.
- Future feature potential: The API connection opens the door to enhancements such as work-friendly tagging for non-hotel accommodations.
