What is travel data normalization?

Travel data normalization is the process of transforming inconsistent data from multiple travel systems into a single, standardized format that can be reliably reported on and analyzed.

Grasp uses normalization to ensure consistent fields, values, and structures across all travel data sources.

Does Grasp provide virtual card payments?

Yes. Grasp supports virtual card workflows used for hotel and supplier payments, helping automate payment creation, delivery, tracking, and reconciliation. graspPAY connects to over 90 banks to create virtual cards and then insert them automatically into the travel reservation flow whether that is an OBT like Concur or a GDS like Sabre.

This reduces manual processes such as fax, email, and manual card entry.
