The opportunity

Your corporate clients are
losing ITC every quarter.
You’re the one they’d trust to fix it.

The corporate client of an average mid-sized Indian TMC leaks roughly ₹2–5% of their annual airline spend in unrecovered GST credit. They don’t know it. You’re already inside the relationship. SkyLink turns that gap into your highest-margin service line.

Per ₹5 Cr client ₹ 21 L typical recoverable ITC, leaking annually with no recon
Typical TMC margin 60–75% on SkyLink-delivered GST recovery, after TraCarta’s per-invoice fee
Time to launch 3 weeks from agreement to first client deployment, fully branded
01, You already have the trust

They flew with you. They’ll listen to you.

Your client trusts you with their travel program because you’ve earned it over years. GST recovery sits adjacent to booking: same data, same finance contact, same cycle. You don’t need a new pitch; you need a new product line.

02, The need is real, the providers are wrong

GST recovery as a standalone is a hard sell

Generic GST tools ask CFOs to buy yet another platform. Travel-specific recovery is a different conversation: specific, quantified, with the data they’re already sharing with you. SkyLink lets you have that conversation natively.

03, Margin you don’t have to fight for

Premium pricing, defended by outcome

You’re not pricing booking margin against airline commissions. You’re pricing measurable ITC recovery against your client’s books. Even at 25% of recovered credit, the math justifies itself every quarter.

White-label, properly

Your brand, edge to edge.
TraCarta, nowhere in sight.

White-label is a phrase that gets stretched thin. We mean it precisely: your corporate client should never encounter TraCarta’s name. Not on a screen, not on an email, not on an invoice, not in support. The engine is ours. The relationship is yours.

The interface

Your brand on every pixel

Your logo, your colours, your typeface, your domain. The portal, the emails, the reports, the audit exports. Every surface your client touches says you, not us.

The contract

Your pricing, your agreement

You set the price to your client. You define the terms. You bill them. You retain the relationship. TraCarta charges you on a back-end basis. The client never sees our paper.

The team

Your people, your support

First-line support comes from your team. We provide escalation, training, and tier-2 backstop. Your client sees a single coherent service, not a vendor stack.

The economics

One mid-sized client.
The math, with nothing hidden.

Below, a worked example for a single corporate client of yours. A 50,000-invoice-per-year travel program, ₹5 crore annual airline spend, typical recovery profile. Your numbers will differ. The structure won’t.

Numbers indicative. Actual margins vary with client mix, airline coverage, and pricing model. SkyLink supports per-cycle, per-invoice, and tiered models. We’ll size the right one with you on the partnership call.
Launch timeline

Three weeks from agreement to first client live.

SkyLink onboarding is built for TMCs who want to move quickly. Most of the work is brand integration and one pilot client.

Week 1–2

Brand pack & portal skin

You share your brand assets: logo, palette, typeface, domain. We theme SkyBoard end-to-end, configure email senders, and stand up your white-label environment. You sign off before any client sees it.

Week 3

First client pilot

Pick one corporate client. We onboard them under your brand, run one full filing cycle, deliver the recon and the ITC report. You see the entire client experience play out in your colours.

Week 4+

Roll out to your roster

With the pilot validated, you sell SkyLink to your wider book. New clients onboard in days, not weeks. Your team owns the conversation. We run the engine and the support backstop.

Who owns what

The honest answer, set out plainly.

The reason most TMC partnerships fail isn’t product. It’s ownership creep, the vendor that quietly shows up in front of your client. We’ve built SkyLink to make that impossible. Here is what belongs to whom, explicitly.

You (TMC)
Your client
TraCarta
Client relationship
Owned Yours, exclusively. We never contact your client.
Belongs here They are your client. Always.
, No relationship. No outreach. Ever.
Client data
Controlled You decide what flows in and out.
Owned Their books, their records. Their property.
Processes Stored, encrypted, returned. Never repurposed.
Brand & pricing
Owned Your brand on every surface. Your pricing.
, Sees only your brand. Pays only your invoice.
, Invisible. Back-end relationship with you only.
Engine & uptime
Configures You choose the modules, the cadence, the limits.
, Experiences the outcome, not the engine.
Operated We run it. We carry the SLA. We backstop you.
Partner questions

What a TMC leadership team would ask.

Will TraCarta ever sell directly to our clients?

No. SkyLink is a contractual non-compete in your covered accounts. We don’t market to your clients, we don’t name them as references, and we don’t allow our sales team to pursue them. Your roster is yours.

What happens if our client leaves us for another TMC?

Their data leaves with them, formatted however they need. We don’t hold it hostage. If they move to a TMC that also runs SkyLink, the engine continues uninterrupted under the new brand. If they move elsewhere, we hand over a clean migration package on your instruction.

Can we co-brand instead of going fully invisible?

Yes. Some partners prefer a small “technology by TraCarta” mark for credibility, particularly in early sales cycles. Others want us invisible entirely. Both are supported; the choice is yours and can change as your roster matures.

How do support escalations work?

Your team handles tier-1 in your brand. For anything that needs engine-level visibility, failed sync, edge-case verdict, regulatory question, you escalate to our partner channel. We respond to you; you respond to your client. The client sees one team.

What reporting do we get for our own management?

A partner dashboard: client-level activity, recovery delivered, margin contribution, support incidents. Aggregated for board reporting, drillable to per-client detail. You see your business through SkyLink; your clients don’t see SkyLink at all.

We already have a GST recovery product. Can SkyLink layer on top?

Often yes. If your existing product handles general-purpose ITC, SkyLink can specialise in the airline category specifically, sitting alongside, not replacing. We’ve done this with two partners already. The integration approach depends on your stack; the partnership math still works.

A one-hour call

Let’s do the numbers on your roster.

Send us a rough shape of your corporate book: account count, average airline spend, your typical pricing model. We’ll come back with what SkyLink would mean as a revenue line for you, plus a partnership outline. One call. No paperwork until you want it.
