Navan and Hilton plan direct API hotel booking integration

Navan (NASDAQ: NAVN) and Hilton (NYSE: HLT) announced plans to build a direct API connection between Hilton's Central Reservation System and Navan's travel management platform, according to a press release from Navan.

Navan claims it will be the first travel management company to integrate directly with Hilton's CRS and content services. The integration uses two Hilton-developed APIs: a Booking API providing real-time access to availability, rates, and reservations, and a Content API delivering property and room information sourced directly from Hilton.

The companies said the integration is intended to enable real-time hotel shopping and booking for corporate travelers, along with more consistent virtual payment acceptance across Hilton's global portfolio.

"By partnering closely with Navan and leveraging Hilton's industry-leading technology and commercial expertise, we are evolving the hotel distribution model and delivering direct connectivity that better supports how corporate customers book, manage, and experience travel," said Frank Passanante, SVP and Global Head of Sales & HRCC at Hilton.

"Collaborating with Hilton on this direct connection will allow us to deliver superior experiences for users from their initial hotel search through booking and checkout," said Dane Molter, SVP, Group Travel Marketplace at Navan.

The companies said the partnership is also intended to serve as a foundation for future enhancements, including deeper automation and post-booking integrations. No financial terms or a specific launch date were disclosed.
