“I believe in keeping things fair, so I run occasional analyses to ensure we’re getting the best value. So far, I haven’t found another platform or support team that can compete.”

Austin T.
, 
Tally Energy

The problem

Before Engine, Tally Energy had no system in place to compare hotel rates in real time. Employees booked hotels individually, often resulting in inflated costs that weren’t flagged until after the stay. Expense reports were a major pain point—employees had to submit receipts, and finance teams had to manually reallocate expenses.

‍

Austin T., Tally’s Product Line Manager, knew the company needed a smarter, more efficient way to manage hotel bookings and expenses.

The solution

By implementing Engine, Tally Energy gained a centralized travel management system, automated direct billing, and seamless AP integration.

‍

This eliminated unnecessary expenses, simplified financial tracking, and improved employee booking experiences.

‍

From day one, Engine delivered improvements in cost control and operational efficiency for Tally Energy. Three years later, the value remains unmatched. As Austin explains, “I believe in keeping things fair, so I run occasional analyses to ensure we’re getting the best value. So far, I haven’t found another platform or support team that can compete.”

“Previously, we only became aware of excessive charges after the fact. With Engine, we have proactive control over rates and spending.”

The Energy of Human Connection

From day one, Austin and Cat—Tally’s first Sales Representative at Engine—built a strong working relationship that has continued to grow. As Tally expanded its use of Engine, Cat also advanced in her career, moving into Account Management, where she now oversees the Tally account.

‍

Over the years, Austin has championed Engine, sharing feedback and proving value, while Cat has been a steadfast partner, always going the extra mile to support Tally.

‍

“One of my employees was struggling to check in after a long shift,” explains Austin. “I called Cat—after hours, while she was picking up her daughter from daycare. Within 10 minutes, she had everything sorted.”

‍

For Cat, long-term partnerships like this one are the most rewarding part of the job.

‍

“Getting to work with the same customers over the years is incredibly fulfilling,” adds Cat. “It’s not just about the platform—it’s about the relationships we build along the way.”

Frequently asked questions

We’re glad you asked!

‍

Hotels want to reach business travelers while companies with traveling workforces want the best rates they can get.

‍

Our platform brings everyone together to radically simplify trip management and give everyone exactly what they want. By booking with Hotel Engine, you and your company will save substantially in both time and money.

By providing great value to our hotel partners, we get great rates. That means we can take a small cut of each booking — enough to cover 24/7 Member Support and continually re-invest in new technology — and still offer deals to our members that are up to 60% less than the online public travel sites. That’s why we can keep Hotel Engine free to join and use.

‍

No membership fees, no contracts, and no minimum spend.

We want our members to have plenty of options when booking lodging. Our platform currently offers 750,000+ properties worldwide.

‍

You'll find just about every hotel in the U.S. on our platform. If you don't see a specific hotel when you search, it's likely because the hotel is fully booked during your dates. In those rare cases, we'll show you nearby comparable properties with availability during your travel dates.

‍

We’re in the business of radically simplifying trip management for everyone, and we believe great hotel rates should be accessible to everyone, too.

‍

That’s why Hotel Engine is free to join and use — no membership fees, no contracts, no minimum required spend, no catch.

‍

‍Click here to learn more about our pricing.

Individual hotel properties set their own cancellation policies, which are clearly displayed during the booking process (you’ll see whether the room is refundable, and the last date you can cancel and receive your money back). After booking, you can find cancellation policy information in the “Important Information” section of your confirmation page.

‍

If you need to keep travel plans flexible, there are two great options available.

‍

  1. You can select the Flex option during the booking process. Flex allows you to cancel any reservation up until noon the day of arrival or cut a trip short mid-stay and get refunded — regardless of the hotel’s cancellation policy.
  2. If your company signs up for FlexPro, every traveler is fully covered with our highest degree of flexibility. With an annual plan, FlexPro costs $2,000 ($167/mo) covering everyone in your company. If you want to go month-to-month, Flexpro costs $200 - again, covering everyone in your company.
