The travelers are home, but the admin is just getting started

Policy compliance starts before booking, with Melon helping guide travelers toward the right choices. After the trip, receipts need filing, personal expenses need reimbursing, and finance needs clean records. We help make all of it easier.

More control upfront, less cleanup at month-end

booking made easy

One system, complete visibility

Book and manage travel in Melon, then simplify whatever happens downstream. Pay on account to reduce traditional expense reporting, or connect supported expense tools if you have a corporate-card program.

Give travelers less to expense

Keep eligible travel costs off personal cards with Melon Pay, or use supported expense connections to cut down on the receipts and details travelers have to reconstruct after the trip.

Put unused tickets back to work

Apply eligible unused air tickets to future bookings before they expire, so money you’ve already spent doesn’t quietly disappear.

Business travel payment options

Your travel program can change, but your payment setup doesn’t have to. Use on account, or continue with your corporate-card program.

On account

Pay on account through an approved line of credit, with billing on an agreed cycle. 

  • Book now, pay later: Keep travelers and teams from having to front travel costs themselves.
  • Consolidated invoicing: Roll travel charges into a single invoice for a cleaner starting point for reconciliation.
  • Additional rebates: Make your travel spend work a little bit harder, just like a corporate-card program.

Bring your own card

Already have a corporate-card or expense program that works? Keep it. Unlike other TMCs, we let you build around your existing setup.

  • Retain existing cards: no need to reissue cards or change payment habits simply because you changed travel providers.
  • Preserve terms and rewards: Continue the banking relationships, payment terms, and card rewards your program was built around.
  • Finance system integrations: Pass supported travel data into expense tools to reduce manual follow-up and keep the process moving.

Melon gives finance the context behind the spend, making it easier to see what’s happening, understand why, and forecast what’s next

My favorite things about CT are that he is always speedy in reply, can basically read my mind, and always give me plenty of options. Using CT makes my job easier because I do not have to look up flights and hotels.

Frequently asked questions

  • What business travel payment options does Corporate Traveler support? 

    Corporate Traveler gives businesses two primary ways to pay for travel: pay on account or use a corporate-card program. If you already have corporate cards, you can keep them. If you do not, we can connect you with partners who can help you explore your options.

  • Can we keep using our existing corporate cards? 

    Yes. Corporate Traveler’s bring your own card option lets you retain your existing corporate cards, along with the banking relationships, payment terms, and rewards attached to them. Supported expense and accounting integrations can also help move eligible travel data into the finance systems your team already uses.

  • How does consolidated invoicing simplify travel reconciliation? 

    For On Account paying customers, eligible travel charges can be brought together through consolidated invoicing rather than arriving as a series of individual traveler transactions. Reporting fields can also be structured around the information finance needs, giving teams a cleaner starting point for coding and reconciliation.

  • How are refunds, unused tickets and travel credits tracked? 

    Corporate Traveler helps keep refunds, unused tickets, and travel credits visible within the travel program, so refunds can be tracked and eligible credits can be put toward future travel.

  • Can Corporate Traveler connect with our expense or ERP system? 

    Corporate Traveler supports connections with selected expense, accounting, and ERP platforms for Bring Your Own Card customers. The connection method and setup vary by system, so our team will confirm what is available for your platform and the most practical way to connect it.
