Yapta Named One of the 100 Best Companies to Work For by Seattle Business Magazine


Yapta, the leading provider of airfare and hotel price tracking services, announced it has been named one of Washington's 100 Best Companies to Work For in an annual ranking compiled by Seattle Business magazine. Yapta (News - Alert) employees praised the organization for its positive culture and for fostering work-life balance.

For the 29th year, Seattle Business magazine looked for the top companies in Washington that set the standard for work environment, rewards and recognition, benefits, communications, responsibility and decision-making, and executive leadership for its annual 100 Best Companies to Work For program. In January, the publication issued anonymous workplace surveys to over 77,000 Washington state employees of companies large and small all across the state, including Yapta. Yapta was ranked #20 in the Small Companies category, which includes organizations with 15 to 49 employees.

"We're so incredibly fortunate to have a team of talented people that are passionate about what they do and the customers we serve," said James Filsinger, President and CEO of Yapta. "While it's an honor to be recognized by Seattle Business magazine, it's an even greater honor to work alongside each one of my colleagues at Yapt every day."



As the only company that provides total trip price assurance, Yapta's IQ Technology has delivered more than $150 million in airfare and hotel savings to its corporate users. Corporate clients average a combined savings of $369 per trip by tracking both airfare and hotel prices in tandem.

More than 7,500 enterprise companies throughout the U.S. - including GE, Amazon, Dell (News - Alert), Eli Lily, Merck, GAP, Shell Oil, and Macy's - are currently utilizing Yapta to track their airfare and hotel prices and capture significant savings. Within the last year, Yapta has also expanded the capability of its corporate travel price tracking technology to all international points of sale and now serves customers in Canada, France, India, Spain and the UK.


In addition, Yapta has distribution agreements with 14 of the top 20 travel management companies in the world, expanding its ability to continue its exceptional growth and scale. Many of Yapta's travel management company partners - including American Express (News - Alert) and CWT - have deployed privately-labeled price monitoring solutions that use Yapta's price-tracking technology as the core of their offering.
