Launchtrip unveils travel platform for group trips

Launchtrip, “the world’s first Together-Travel company,” is live on the App Store. Founded in 2018, Launchtrip removes the roadblocks historically associated with group-travel by allowing users to plan and book travel based on destination city or event, and the ability to divide costs and pay separately.

The startup, which raised $3.8 million, focuses on lodging and restaurants (Resy is Launchtrip’s official restaurant booking partner). By the end of the year, it plans to add ground transportation and travel insurance to its platform.

“Launchtrip is a new kind of travel booking company and one that we believe will transform the travel and hospitality space. From group travel to complete transparency for consumers and partners, we are committed to creating the best experience possible for our users and are thrilled to open to the public today.” – Launchtrip CEO and Founder Julian Ing.
