Benefits include:
Superior Management Reports: Corporations claim that UATP offers the most comprehensive worldwide air travel reporting in the industry. Detail is at the segment level (not offered by most card programs) that provides detailed travel expense patterns for your company with precise information for budget analysis and forecasting of air and rail travel expenses. Information includes, who travelers are, where and when they travel, on which airline they travel, and how much they pay. This level of detail allows companies to control costs and reconcile easily. The data can also be customized for each corporation at no additional cost.
Ease of Reconciliation: Concise, centralized billing from the issuing airline is available in multiple formats to interface with your corporate accounting systems. Customized billing options break expenses down by cost center, department, project, client, employee of other category - whatever best suits your needs. This allows you to ensure maximum benefit from corporate airline volume agreements and eliminate employee travel cash advances.
Beneficial Relationships: Beneficial airline-corporation relationship ensures improved service and the ability to negotiate loyalty agreements with preferred carriers.
Improved Control: The biggest challenge facing finance executives and travel managers is the lack of compliance with T&E policies. UATP keeps air travel charges separate from other corporate travel and entertainment expenses, adding greater control by discouraging credit misuse and simplifying reconciliation.
Elimination of Fraud: UATP is a centrally billed system which is preferred among travel managers globally. It allows travel managers to consolidate data into one statement for better monitoring and compliance of travel policy while eliminating employee fraud. There is virtually no fraud or chargebacks. Lodged accounts reduce account number exposure and limit the risk of employee abuse. Better data provides corporate security through employee tracking.
Choice/Corporate Flexibility: UATP offers one of the most efficient and flexible payment systems available, including a cardless account to a co-branded corporate UATP Visa or MasterCard (availability varies).
No Hidden Costs: UATP does not have any application or annual fees. Companies do not have to pay currency conversion fees (this can be as much as 3%). UATP is the lowest form of payment for an airline; this allows the airline to share some of its cost savings in the form of rebates with its best companies. Contact sales@uatp.com for details.
