One of Japan's biggest travel management companies has signed on with hotel and airfare price tracking specialist Yapta. JTB Business Travel Solutions, a joint venture between JTB and CWT, will offer Yapta's FareIQ and RoomIQ services to its corporate customers across Asia and beyond via a reseller agreement, according to Yapta.
The partnership broadens Seattle-based Yapta's footprint in Asia and connects it with "thousands of businesses that are looking to save on travel," according to Yapta president James Filsinger.
The deal also represents the latest step in Yapta's rapid recent growth. In August, Yapta was named one of the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. by Inc. and recently was included in the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 list of the fastest-growing tech companies in North America.
