--- title: "Viaondo vs TripIt: agency trip app or traveler organizer" description: "TripIt is a free trip organizer your clients run from their own account. Viaondo is a trip app with your brand that your agency builds and updates." url: "https://viaondo.com/compare/tripit" language: "en" updated: "2026-10-17" --- # Viaondo vs TripIt TripIt is a trip organizer for travelers: each person keeps their own account and adds plans by forwarding confirmation emails. Viaondo is software for agencies: you build the trip and your client receives it as an app with your brand. If your clients want one place for all their travel, including trips they book themselves, TripIt fits them well. Viaondo is for handing over the trip you sold, ready to use and under your name. ## How do Viaondo and TripIt compare, point by point? | | Viaondo | TripIt | | --- | --- | --- | | Price | US$50/month, plus VAT where it applies | Free; TripIt Pro costs $48.99/year as an in-app purchase on the US App Store | | Pricing model | Per agency, team included | Per traveler: a free account, or TripIt Pro paid by each traveler; some get Pro through their company’s SAP Concur | | Who builds the itinerary | Your agency, in the dashboard; the client receives it ready | The traveler, by forwarding confirmation emails to plans@tripit.com, with Inbox Sync or by hand | | Whose account holds the trip | Your agency’s; the client opens it from a private link | The traveler’s own TripIt account; its terms don’t allow creating an account for anyone else | | Traveler app with your brand | Yes, included | No: the trip lives in the TripIt app, under TripIt’s name | | Works offline | Yes, except the street map | Yes, in the app while signed in; updates wait for a connection | | App languages | Ten languages | US English, UK English, French, German, Japanese and Spanish | | Loading bookings automatically | Yes: PDFs, images and emails | Yes: reads confirmation emails forwarded to plans@tripit.com or found by Inbox Sync | | Last-minute changes | You publish a new version and the app shows what changed | New confirmations update the trip; TripIt Pro adds real-time flight alerts | | Data hosted in the EU | Yes (database and files) | Not EU-only: its privacy statement allows transfers outside the EEA | | Free trial | 14 days, card required | The app is free; TripIt Pro has a 30-day free trial | | App Store and Google Play app | No (web app) | Yes: iOS and Android, plus Apple Watch, Mac and the web | | Price for the traveler | Nothing: your agency pays US$50/month, plus VAT where it applies | Free; TripIt Pro costs $48.99/year as an in-app purchase on the US App Store | | Traveler needs an account | No: the trip opens from a private link | Yes, to keep the trip in the app; read-only shares can be viewed without one | *Facts checked on 25 September 2026.

TripIt was built for travelers who organize their own trips, and for them it has these advantages: - **It’s free for the traveler.** Your client can use the basic app without paying, and it costs your agency nothing. - **All of the traveler’s trips in one place.** Business trips and flights they book themselves sit next to your trip in one account. Viaondo only shows the trips your agency builds. - **Automatic import from the inbox.** Travelers forward confirmations to plans@tripit.com, or connect Gmail, Outlook, Microsoft 365 or Yahoo with Inbox Sync so plans are added for them. - **Apps everywhere.** TripIt has apps for iOS, Android, Apple Watch and Mac, plus the website. Viaondo is a web app and isn’t in the App Store or Google Play. - **Flight alerts with TripIt Pro.** Real-time flight status, check-in reminders, gate and terminal reminders, alternate flight options, interactive airport maps and risk alerts. Viaondo has no automatic flight alerts. - **Japanese.** TripIt is available in Japanese; Viaondo isn’t. - **SAP Concur.** Travelers whose company uses SAP Concur may get TripIt Pro at no cost. ## How much does TripIt cost, and who pays? The traveler pays, if anyone does. The TripIt app is free; TripIt Pro costs $48.99/year as an in-app purchase on the US App Store, with a 30-day free trial, and some travelers get Pro through their company’s SAP Concur. Your agency has nothing to buy, and nothing to control either: the trip sits in your client’s own account. Viaondo turns that around. Your agency pays US$50/month, plus VAT where it applies, for unlimited trips and travelers, and your clients pay nothing and need no account. ## When is Viaondo the better choice? Viaondo is the better choice when you want to hand over the trip ready to use, rather than ask the client to assemble it: - **You build the trip for your client.** Your client doesn’t forward emails or create an account. You load the bookings and add what isn’t in them, and your client gets a link. - **Every trip carries your brand.** In TripIt your trip appears under TripIt’s name. In Viaondo it carries your logo, color, contact details, WhatsApp button and review link. See [branding](https://viaondo.com/product/branding). - **You stay in charge of changes.** When something changes, you publish a new version and the traveler sees what changed. - **Your clients speak other languages.** Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Turkish and Swedish aren’t in TripIt’s language list; Viaondo works in all of them. - **You care where your data lives.** Viaondo’s database and files are stored in the EU. TripIt’s privacy statement allows transfers outside the EEA. ## When is TripIt enough? TripIt is enough when your clients are frequent travelers who already keep everything in it, and what you sell is a flight or a hotel rather than a built trip. If they forward their own confirmations and have Pro for flight alerts, an agency app adds little for them. It also suits travelers whose company provides TripIt Pro through SAP Concur. TripIt’s own help article on travel arrangers says that workflow isn’t designed for travel agencies, though, so it’s their tool rather than yours: you can’t brand it, and every client needs their own account. ## Who does the work? With TripIt, the itinerary depends on what the traveler forwards and how TripIt reads each email. With Viaondo, you upload PDFs, screenshots or confirmation emails to [booking import](https://viaondo.com/product/booking-import), and they go into the trip’s draft, each booking linked to its document. Then you add the destination guide, places, checklist and emergency numbers. ## What does your client see? In TripIt, your trip appears next to their other plans, under TripIt’s name. In Viaondo, the [traveler app](https://viaondo.com/product/traveler-app) opens from your private link with your brand. With personal links, each traveler sees the shared items plus their own documents and seats. In TripIt, a change has to reach the traveler’s account as a new confirmation; in Viaondo, you publish and the app shows the before and after. ## How do you start if your clients use TripIt? Nothing has to move: the trips live in your clients’ accounts, not yours. Upload the confirmations of your next departure, check what’s listed under To confirm and publish. Clients who like TripIt can keep it for their own travel, and from Viaondo they can add one plan or the whole trip to their calendar.

No. TripIt is a trip organizer for individual travelers. Its help article on travel arrangers says that workflow is not designed to support travel agencies, TMCs or sharing trips for large numbers of people from a single account. ### Can my agency build trips in TripIt for clients? TripIt describes a workflow where the planner and the traveler each create their own TripIt account, the planner forwards the confirmations and then shares the trip. Its user agreement doesn’t allow creating an account for anyone other than yourself, so each client needs their own. ### Can my clients keep using TripIt? Yes. Viaondo doesn’t replace a traveler’s personal organizer. Your client opens the trip you built from a private link and, if they like, can still keep their own TripIt account. From Viaondo they can also add one plan or the whole trip to their calendar. ### How much does each one cost? TripIt is free for travelers, and TripIt Pro costs $48.99/year on the US App Store, paid by each traveler. Viaondo costs US$50/month per agency, plus VAT where it applies, with unlimited trips and travelers and your team included (fair use); your clients pay nothing. ### Does TripIt Pro have a free trial? Yes: TripIt Pro has a 30-day free trial, and the basic TripIt app is free. Each traveler pays for Pro themselves, not your agency. Viaondo has a 14-day free trial: a card is required and nothing is charged until day 15. ## See it with your own trips 14 days free, no lock-in.
