Business travel and expense management platform Navan announced on July 29 a new integration with American Express that enables American Express U.S. Business and Corporate Card members to instantly create unique virtual cards for travel booked on the Navan Travel platform via Navan Connect.
As part of this integration, Navan is participating in the American Express Sync Commercial Partner Program.
“We’re thrilled to join forces with American Express to give our customers access to the control, enhanced security, and cash flow management that come with using an American Express virtual card,” Navan President Michael Sindicich said in a statement. “Navan and American Express are both obsessed with delivering amazing user experiences that optimize efficiency and savings. The integration helps us provide our signature end-to-end experience and increased value to our customers that use American Express for their card needs.”
Combined with the end-to-end Navan T&E solution, the Navan-American Express Sync integration offers:
- Improved reconciliation: Speed up month-end close with automated reconciliation, all while earning the rewards of your American Express card. (Not all cards are eligible to get rewards. Terms and limitations apply.)
- Proactive spending policies: Create unique virtual cards with built-in spending policies that make managing travel spend simple for accounting and finance teams.
- Real-time expense management: Companies have full visibility into every virtual card expense the instant it happens with pending and cleared transactions that automatically appear in the Navan Expense dashboard to enable accounting and finance leaders to uncover savings opportunities—while keeping budgets and forecasts up to date.
- With Navan, there are even more reasons to love your card. American Express card members can earn the rewards of their eligible American Express card when they use on-demand virtual cards for travel payments.
Navan Connect’s “bring your own card” functionality enables businesses to enjoy the benefits of the travel and expense solution while keeping the benefits of the company’s existing bank and corporate card partner. The card-link technology has recorded more than $1 billion in transaction volume since January 2024.
Terms apply, enrollment required, and fees may apply. More information about the partnership can be found here.
