Smarter Ground Travel: How SAP Concur and Uber for Business Simplify the Journey

SAP Concur Team |

Managing business travel has always been a balancing act. Employees want flexibility and convenience, while finance teams need visibility and control. Add in the hassle of lost taxi receipts, manual reimbursements, and policy reminders, and ground transportation can quickly become a frustrating part of the travel experience.

That is where SAP Concur solutions and Uber for Business come together. By integrating one of the most familiar rideshare apps in the world with a leading travel and expense solution, companies can simplify the ground travel experience for employees and administrators alike. The result is a smoother, more compliant process that saves time, improves oversight, and gives everyone more confidence in how travel dollars are spent.

A Simpler Experience for Travelers

Employees already know how to use Uber, which makes adoption easy. With the Uber for Business integration, rides taken for business flow seamlessly into SAP Concur expense reports, complete with trip details:

  • No more lost receipts — every ride is automatically captured.
  • No confusion between business and personal rides.
  • Less manual work for employees and faster reporting.

For travelers, this is one less distraction during busy trips. For administrators, it means expenses are submitted correctly the first time, without extra back-and-forth.

Easy Setup and Automated Expensing

Rolling out new tools often feels daunting, but this integration is designed for quick activation. With just a few clicks, organizations can enable automated expenses for all employees. That means:

  • Simple onboarding — employees are ready to go immediately.
  • Business rides and meals flow directly into SAP Concur with all the details included.
  • Fewer errors and faster reimbursements, saving time for both employees and finance teams.

Visibility and Policy Controls

Finance leaders need more than receipts — they need insights. The Uber for Business dashboard provides detailed reporting on transportation spend and usage so companies can:

  • Track spending in real time.
  • Identify patterns and trends.
  • Ensure employees stay within policy.
  • Adjust rules to match company travel policies.

With custom controls in place, businesses can keep costs under control while still giving employees the flexibility they need.

Extra Value for Employees

Beyond compliance and cost control, the integration offers perks employees will appreciate:

  • Exclusive Uber One discount available for both business and personal rides.
  • Familiar app experience with no learning curve.
  • Convenience that reduces travel-related stress.

A Better Way to Manage Ground Travel

Business travel should not create unnecessary headaches. By bringing together SAP Concur solutions and Uber for Business, organizations can eliminate the hassles of manual receipts, improve compliance, and provide a seamless experience employees will actually appreciate.

The integration makes ground travel simpler, more transparent, and more cost-effective for everyone involved.
