London (ots/PRNewswire) -

- Leading European Rail Suppliers Partner With Concur to Provide
Full Access to Content, Affinity Programs, and Electronic Receipts -
Which Are Available Exclusively to Concur Clients

Concur (Nasdaq: CNQR), the world's leading provider of on-demand
Employee Spend Management services, today announced the availability
of the broadest selection of European Rail content available through
any travel booking tool. Participating suppliers include VIA Rail,
SNCF, Rail1, Die Bahn and Evolvi (UK Rail by Harry Weeks Travel).
Through Concur(R) Connect, Concur provides clients with exclusive
access to travel suppliers' content and services otherwise
unavailable though traditional managed travel programs. Concur
clients have full and direct access to each of these suppliers'
product offerings and faring options, as well as guaranteed access to
participating supplier traveller affinity programs. Concur Connect
also enables participating suppliers to deliver e-receipts directly
into the expense reports of business travellers -- an
industry-exclusive feature that only Concur clients enjoy.

Concur Connect covers a broad range of services from over 100,000
suppliers; including GDS suppliers, limos, parking, and the widest
selection of rail content through direct rail system agreements
spanning Europe and North America. Concur Connect even provides
access to dining through Open Table. Concur Connect doesn't just stop
at reservations like other content aggregators. Concur uses the same
interfaces to gather receipts, automate reporting and deliver Smart
Expenses(TM) -- Concur's industry-first innovation that completely
shatters the notion of the traditional expense report. By matching
the three trusted sources of data -- itinerary, corporate card and
e-receipts -- Concur provides the capability for organizations to
automatically complete the expense report on the employee's behalf,
making One Touch Business Travel(TM) a reality.

Concur Connect allows corporate travel and procurement
professionals to tap into a powerful global marketplace and drive
costs out of their businesses -- independent of suppliers, agencies
or distribution systems. By providing access to the broadest
selection of content available, Concur Connect helps boost adoption
of the online booking tool, ensuring that travellers book within
policy, increasing satisfaction and productivity while reducing
program leakage.

"As the only truly global provider of integrated online travel
booking and expense management services, Concur understands the
importance of providing business travellers with access to the right
content," said Rajeev Singh, president and chief operating officer
for Concur. "Through Concur's services, our clients have access to
the global content, inventory and programs they need, while travel
suppliers enjoy a direct connection to the business travellers that
use their services, enabling them to offer the amenities and access
to programs that drive loyalty and increase satisfaction. Most
importantly, Concur enables both corporate travel buyers and the
suppliers they use to efficiently exchange data and conduct
frictionless transactions, increasing visibility and driving down
costs."
