Cross border payments firm Airwallex has partnered with online travel company Expedia Group to help customers save when booking hotel stays amidst the surge in both business and personal travel.

Through this partnership, existing and new Airwallex customers will receive a 10 percent discount for hotel stays when booking on the platform, starting from today.

According to Expedia’s Traveler Value Index 2023, one in three people are planning on business travel in the year ahead.

With this increase in demand, and as Covid restrictions are lifted all around the world, Airwallex said it has been identifying ways to continue to support businesses as they look to travel and grow across borders.

Jessica Chiu, Head of North American Strategic Partnerships said,

“We know the cost pressures many companies are facing in their budgets but we also understand how important work travel can be to building new relationships and growing a business.

 

Whether it’s meeting new business prospects, attending a conference or an internal team gathering, we recognise face-to-face engagements help build better connections.”

Clayton Nelson, Vice President, Retail Partnerships at Expedia Group said,

“With so many business travellers looking to book trips amid rising costs and inflation, this partnership with Expedia makes travel more affordable for all Airwallex customers around the world.

 

We are delighted to be partnering with Airwallex to offer their members a way to access discounts across our depth and breadth of global travel supply on our sites. We’re always looking for ways to connect our partners with travellers via our industry-leading affiliate technology.”
