Can I set spending limits or approval rules for employee bookings?
trip1 doesn't have built-in per-employee spending caps yet. Enforce limits through company travel policy and centralized admin bookings.

Options for enforcing spending controls
Company travel policy
Define per-night caps by city, star rating limits, and pre-approval thresholds in writing. Enforce via manager sign-off before employees book, and receipt review at reimbursement time.
Centralized admin bookings
One authorised person books all team travel from a single account and pays from the corporate wallet. Employees never touch trip1, so there's nothing to overspend.
Pre-approval via search sharing
Ask employees to share trip1 hotel selections and rates with their manager before booking. Manager approves in writing (email, Slack), then employee completes checkout.
API-based custom flows
Larger organisations can integrate trip1's API into their existing procurement or T&E systems (Concur, Ramp, Navan-style), adding approval steps or spending policies before a booking is confirmed. Contact trip1 for API access.
Reviewing bookings after the fact
For decentralized booking with post-hoc review, require employees to submit the trip1 invoice with expense reports. Managers review against policy and approve reimbursement.

Ask employees to share the trip1 search results and rate before checkout, get manager approval, then complete the booking - or centralize bookings through one admin account.
The trip1 API supports building custom booking flows including internal approvals. Contact trip1 for API access details.
Not built-in. Companies typically rely on receipt review at reimbursement time, or centralized booking to enforce policy upfront.
