For companies

Your whole company in a single tool

Counter, departures, fleet, parcels, cash desk and finance: TRAVOLIS replaces paper ledgers and sells your seats online.

Discover the company offerSee pricing

Online and counter sales

Your departures seen by thousands of travellers, and a big-button counter with thermal printing.

Real-time seat map

One source of truth for the counter, the website and the app: no seat sold twice, even per segment.

Parcels end to end

Check-in, label, loading on a departure, SMS to the recipient and handover with a pickup code.

Offline counter

An internet outage doesn’t stop sales: the counter keeps going and syncs when the network is back.

Payouts at 6 pm

Online sales collected before 6 pm are paid out to you the same day, with a detailed statement.

Driver app

Manifest, QR ticket checks, live position and incidents from the driver’s phone.
