Enabling the $1.6tr travel
management industry
to stay alive, and thrive.
Backed by
TMCs are rapidly
looking to digitise
their operations after
a disastrous 2020,
and turning to
TapTrip for help.
The multi $bn major challenges for TMCs, globally:
Solving this starts with automation.
Onboard in minutes, not days.
Current average onboarding: 2 weeks.
Digitise bookings, cut cost-to-serve.
Current offline booking rate: 73%
Think tech, not people.
Reduce servicing costs from £20 to £3.
TMCs need a single API
that integrates with each
layer of the travel stack;
a complex task that they
can’t engineer alone.
This is our playing field.

Why TapTrip wins
Deep industry relationships
& growing credibility.
Major industry shift to digital,
accelerated by COVID.
Few other credible tech
players in our space.
SAP Concur is v. clunky and
unpopular; Serko isn’t active in
Europe, SABS don’t operate in
our current sector – but we’ve
got our eye open. Likewise with
C-Teleport, a European startup.
TMCs are big organisations and
slow to change, but COVID is
forcing rapid transition to
automation. We’re at the
forefront of this change with
some of the largest TMCs.
We come from inside travel, we
understand the systems, the
technology and the mentality.
Our industry relationships have
allowed us to quickly build a
growing pipeline of TMCs.
We’re raising a
venture round to
build Europe’s next
travel unicorn,
powering a $1.6tr
industry’s shift to
automation.
The opportunity ahead of us is huge.
We’ve just started to scratch the
surface, working with major TMCs as
a critical part of their infrastructure.
At this round we want to invest in client
acquisition and deeper product
development, allowing us to hit £1m
MRR by December 2022.
Our focus is on VCs who can help us
move at pace and grow to be a
valuable market player.
