Meet Travel Code at GBTA Convention 2026 — Stand 2507, Chicago
Travel Code is at the GBTA Convention 2026, the 57th annual gathering of the Global Business Travel Association, on 3–5 August 2026 at McCormick Place in Chicago. Come find us at Stand 2507 in the Expo Hall.
If you run a corporate travel program and you have wondered whether you can extract more savings without ripping out your TMC — walk up to Stand 2507. No booking required, no pitch deck between us and a real conversation. We will run a live demo of RateGuard against a sample itinerary, show duty-of-care coverage across any TMC, and answer whatever question your program is stuck on.
What GBTA Convention is
GBTA Convention is the world's largest annual gathering for corporate travel and meetings-management professionals. Chicago 2026 brings together over 5,000 attendees — travel buyers, procurement leaders, TMCs, technology suppliers, and hoteliers — across 100+ education sessions and 300+ exhibitors. This is the industry event where the year's product launches, category shifts, and buyer signals all land in one hall.
Why stop by Stand 2507
Travel Code is not a TMC. It is a BYOD (bring-your-own-data) overlay that runs alongside Concur, Egencia, SAP Concur, Amex GBT, Navan, TravelPerk, BCD, CWT, FCM, Direct Travel, or any TMC of record. Three reasons the conversation at 2507 is worth 10 minutes of your convention time:
- RateGuard pricing: 25% of validated savings. No SaaS subscription, no per-user fee, no multi-year contract. You pay only when a measurable rate reduction is re-booked into your existing system. This is the only performance-based commercial model on the exhibit floor.
- BYOD overlay, not vendor swap. Implementation runs 2–4 weeks because there is no migration. We re-shop hotel and air rates continuously, deliver a unified duty-of-care feed across all booking sources, and reconcile spend across whichever TMC you already use.
- Multi-TMC programs get consolidated visibility for the first time. If you operate a hybrid stack — one TMC in North America, another in EMEA, a third for meetings — a BYOD layer is the only way to get one duty-of-care view and one rate-shopping engine without forcing a global rip-and-replace.
What we demo live at Stand 2507
- Live hotel and air rate re-shop on a sample itinerary, running against Concur, Egencia, and SAP inventory side-by-side
- Unified duty-of-care feed across all booking sources — not only bookings made through your primary TMC
- Two-minute overlay setup on top of any Amex GBT, BCD, CWT, Navan, TravelPerk, or Direct Travel program — no developer time required on your side
- The commercial math: how the 25%-of-validated-savings model plays out against a typical $5M or $20M managed-spend program
