Q3 is almost over, which means the number of people travelling for work is set to increase as we move into Q4.
In 2022, corporate trips with Bolt Business rose by 40.2% between Q3 and Q4! And if that’s any indication of things to come for the rest of this year, there’s no better time to start preparing than now.
Let's go ahead and get into it. 👇
In Transit: September 2023
In this month’s edition of In Transit, you’ll find out:
Why your company’s travel policy is failing your employees
If your company truly wants to support employees, ensure safety, and put their well-being first, you must reconsider your employee transport policy. And the first step is to make sure you know about the faults in your current setup.
1. You have one travel policy for your entire workforce.
Setting individual travel policies is essential when you have several teams with different travel needs.
2. You haven’t included alternative modes of transport.
An outdated business travel policy that fails to recognise the value of public transport, micromobility, and ride-hailing can cause frustration among employees.
3. It’s unclear to your employees.
Any uncertainty around transport and the costs covered by your policies can lead to confusion or employees avoiding travel altogether.
If these points sound familiar, find out how to fix your approach to building corporate travel policies.

How to track your team's travel expenses with Bolt Business
You want to know that your team are travelling for the right reasons — and that’s why expense notes are essential.
By adding expense tracking to a travel policy, your team members will be asked to type a reason for taking the trip when they try to charge an order to your company in their Bolt app.
That way, you’ll know the reason for every trip your employees make for work.
Here's how it looks. 👇
You'll never look at your office car park in the same way again
By supporting your team to travel to work by scooter or bike, you can save a lot of space and cut your car park management costs. Just look at how many electric scooters can fit in a car parking space. 👇
That's all for this month. See you in Q4. 👋
