In a major stride toward simplifying business travel and expense management, MakeMyTrip’s corporate travel arm, myBiz, has partnered with Swiggy to integrate corporate meal solutions across its platform. The collaboration enables employees to order meals from Swiggy’s vast restaurant network and charge them directly to the company account, eliminating the need for reimbursements. With real-time expense tracking, policy compliance, and automated billing, the alliance aims to bring unprecedented convenience and transparency to corporate dining—a segment that constitutes over 11% of total business travel spending in India.
Transforming Corporate Dining with Digital Integration
The partnership between myBiz and Swiggy represents a seamless convergence of travel management and digital food services. Corporate travelers using myBiz can now switch to “Corporate Mode” on the Swiggy app and settle payments through the myBiz wallet, with all expenses instantly recorded in the organization’s accounting system. This eliminates manual documentation and ensures real-time visibility for finance teams.
Through the “Bill to Company” feature, employees simply link their corporate credentials once to activate direct billing. Meals ordered under this mode are charged automatically to the company’s myBiz account, enabling easy tracking, approval, and compliance with corporate expense policies.
Expanding the Reach of Business Convenience
Swiggy’s extensive reach—spanning over 2.6 lakh restaurants across 720+ cities and 40,000+ dine-out partners in more than 50 cities—provides comprehensive coverage for business travelers nationwide. This integration not only simplifies access to food on the go but also enhances control and predictability for companies managing dispersed teams.
Corporate meal spending, often a cumbersome aspect of business travel, is set to become significantly more efficient. By digitalizing meal management, the partnership eliminates the friction of personal reimbursements and reduces administrative overheads for both employees and finance departments.
Strategic Value for Both Partners
For myBiz, which already manages travel bookings, accommodations, and insurance for over 75,000 businesses, this partnership marks a natural extension of its enterprise ecosystem. By venturing into meal management, myBiz strengthens its position as a one-stop corporate travel and expense solution.
For Swiggy, this alliance expands its footprint into the enterprise space, reinforcing its ambition to become a key player in corporate consumption. It builds on Swiggy’s initiatives such as DeskEats—available in 7,000+ tech parks across 30+ cities—and its growing portfolio of corporate rewards programs.
Together, the partnership combines myBiz’s robust financial tools with Swiggy’s logistics network, creating a synergistic ecosystem that benefits both corporate clients and employees.
Driving Efficiency and Compliance
Beyond convenience, the collaboration addresses a longstanding gap in corporate expense management—lack of transparency and control over meal expenditures. By automating data capture and policy validation, companies can ensure adherence to budgetary norms while maintaining visibility into employee spending.
Moreover, the system’s integration with existing corporate travel policies and accounting workflows minimizes errors, fraud risks, and time delays. Finance teams can now monitor expenses in real time, ensuring a smoother audit trail and greater fiscal discipline.
The Broader Implication for Business Travel
The partnership underscores a growing trend in India’s corporate ecosystem: the convergence of fintech and service technology to drive productivity and compliance. As organizations adapt to hybrid and remote work models, solutions that unify travel, dining, and expense management are becoming indispensable.
By leveraging automation and scale, myBiz and Swiggy are redefining the contours of corporate travel experience—making it not only more efficient but also more human-centric. With this move, the two companies position themselves at the forefront of India’s rapidly evolving business-travel tech landscape.
