Smart budget guidance

Know what the trip actually costs

Set a total, choose a travel style, and TripMate suggests how to split it across transport, stays, food, sightseeing, and a reserve. Then track what you really spend against the plan.

  • Planned versus actual, by category
  • Per-person and per-day figures calculated automatically
  • Split any expense across the group and track who has settled
  • Overspending warnings before the trip, not after

TripMate Assistant

Ask about your own trip, not the internet

The assistant answers using your saved trips, budgets, and the verified guides and agencies on TripMate — what is still unplanned, where the money is going, and who can show you around.

Safety and verification

Why the verified badge means something

Documents checked by people

Guides submit government ID and licensing. Agencies submit registration and GST certificates. Our team reviews each one before the badge appears.

Reviews only from real trips

A review can only be written by a traveller with a completed booking, and each booking can be reviewed once. No anonymous ratings.

Policies stated up front

Cancellation, refund, and safety information appear on every agency profile before you request a quotation.
