Questions

Navan Business (free travel, expense free for 5 users): what founders ask

Each answer restates what Navan and the pages linked under it say, read on October 18, 2026; every quoted line was still on those pages on November 12, 2026.

Is Navan free to use?

Yes, for companies with up to 300 employees: Navan Business is free, with no limit on how many trips you book. Navan Expense is free for the first 5 monthly expensing users and then costs $15 per user per month.

Navan explains why: “Navan is powered by travel providers' commission fees”. Companies with more than 300 employees move to Navan Enterprise, which is priced by quote.

Does Navan have a free trial?

Navan Business needs no trial: it is free for companies with up to 300 employees, and you sign up with Get started on Navan's pricing page. Navan Enterprise, for larger companies, starts with a demo and a price quote.

An “active expense user is anyone who submits a transaction into Navan expense”, so the 5 free expense users count the people who file expenses in a month, not everyone with an account.

Is there a Navan promo code or discount?

Navan publishes no promo code. Its pricing page shows a promotional offer instead, “Get $500 for personal travel when your company joins Navan”, without the offer's conditions, so ask Navan for them before you count on it.

Navan's other saving is Navan Rewards (below), which pays employees for booking business hotels under a price target.

What is Navan Rewards?

A “fully-funded program” that pays employees for booking business hotels below a “price to beat” set under their travel policy. They earn Navan Rewards after the trip and can spend them on personal hotel stays booked on Navan.

Does Navan have a referral program?

Navan's published referral terms describe an offer that ran from October 14, 2024 to April 14, 2025: $250 in Navan Rewards each for the referring customer and the company referred. That page publishes no newer offer.

Navan's terms say “Referral links should be shared solely from one person to another”. The Apply button on this page is StartupPerks' affiliate link, not a customer referral: Navan's pages do not say a company arriving through it receives anything extra.

What that offer required of the company referred
  • Onboarded on Navan for at least 30 days
  • Three completed hotel stays of $100 or more each
  • At least three employees registered as Navan users
  • Signed up by the first person at the company, through a link received directly from the referrer
