About Navan
Navan is a commercial platform that combines corporate travel booking with expense management. Employees book flights, hotels and other travel inside the product, and the resulting spend flows into expense reports so travel managers and finance teams get a single view of costs.
The platform's modules include business travel management, program management, advanced analytics, rewards, sustainability reporting, travel services and support, plus expense management, payments with Navan cards or bring-your-own corporate cards, and event sourcing and management. It also supports personal travel booking, integrations and security controls.
Navan is proprietary software delivered as a hosted service. The vendor describes offerings for enterprises and small businesses, with roles ranging from travelers and executive assistants to accounting and procurement teams, and it publishes a pricing page and calculators for business travel savings.
