Navan

Travel + expense + cards bundled for travel-heavy organizations.

By Navan, Inc. (formerly TripActions) · Founded 2015 · Palo Alto, CA · private

Navan (formerly TripActions, rebranded 2023) is the travel + expense + cards platform, founded 2015, last valued $9.2B (2022). The product is the strongest travel-anchored spend platform, best fit for organizations with significant travel spend. Strengths: deepest travel booking integration, travel + expense + cards in one platform, and Navan Connect for global card issuance. Trade-offs: outside the travel-heavy use case the product is less competitive than Ramp/Brex on cards alone, and the 2023 TripActions → Navan rebrand created some user confusion.
