Travel insurance provider battleface announced its integration with Concur Travel. The new offering is designed to deliver customizable travel protection benefits for corporate, bleisure and group travel such as: trip cancellation, interruption & delay, rental car damage, business equipment and baggage loss & delay, security evacuation and travel medical & emergency medical transportation. Lisa Conway, CUO, battleface, comments: “battleface’s corporate travel insurance provides a vital component to the duty of care solution in the event something goes wrong during an employee’s trip. This new integration with Concur Travel enables us to extend the reach of our duty of care solution, ensuring businesses and employees have the right form of customizable protection for every trip their employees take, just about anywhere in the world.” Conway continues: “Travel has changed dramatically in recent years. Remote workers, ‘bleisure’ travel, work/life balance and corporate spend have all added to the need for travel insurance that not only provides duty of care, but also allows for flexibility and customization that employees want. battleface’s corporate travel insurance allows companies to select the specific benefits that are necessary to their travel policy and provide others as optional for employees to select on an as-needed basis.” Once connected, when employees book travel, the Concur Travel platform provides battleface with the employee booking information and, based on this data, a travel protection quotation will be sent to the employee’s registered email address and will include a summary of the benefits which the employee can then purchase. battleface Travel Protection is now available in the SAP Concur App Center.
