The Company
Tripkicks Overview
We believe in the power of face to face. The connections, opportunities, relationships, experiences, results, and presence of being there – in the moment. These moments and their outcomes are powered by travel, and now more than ever – companies are realizing the importance of face to face and the scenarios that require a connection greater than a webcam can provide.
Headquartered in New York City, Tripkicks is on a mission to make business travel better; empowering travelers with the information they need to build confidence, be more informed, and make better decisions, while helping companies achieve their spend reduction, program compliance, and traveler experience related goals. We work alongside Travel Management Companies, and partner with leading corporate booking tools, such as SAP Concur, to take business travel programs to the next level.
Tripkicks was recently awarded the “People’s Choice” Award at BTN Innovate, has been recognized by Phocuswright as one of the Hot Startups for 2021, and was a finalist for Skift’s Business Travel Innovator Award.
Come join a fun, passionate, fast-paced, lean, and hard-working team obsessed with making business travel better for companies and travelers.
