What the Rippling +

Navan

Integration Does

The Rippling–Navan integration connects Rippling's employee and org data to Navan's corporate travel and expense management platform. Travel policies are assigned based on Rippling department and job level, and approval routing follows Rippling's manager hierarchy. Corporate card access can be provisioned to the right employees automatically based on their role.

When employees join, they're added to Navan with the correct travel policy and card access if applicable. When they leave, Navan access and card access are deactivated as part of Rippling's offboarding workflow.

What Mid-Market Teams Get Wrong

Navan integrations are often configured for employee sync but not for policy mapping. All employees end up on the same travel policy regardless of their role — so executives book the same hotel class as interns, or field sales teams have the same per diems as remote office workers. Properly mapping Rippling's department and job level to Navan's policy tiers fixes this automatically.

How thePeopleStack Configures This

thePeopleStack configures the Rippling–Navan integration with employee data sync, travel and expense policy mapping based on Rippling department and job level, and approval routing aligned to Rippling's manager hierarchy. We ensure onboarding and offboarding events in Rippling are reflected in Navan's employee profiles and card access without manual steps.

USA & Canadian Operations Note

For Canadian employees, thePeopleStack ensures Navan is configured for CAD currency and that Canadian travel policy rules — including any per diem considerations or CRA mileage rates — are reflected in the Navan configuration connected to Rippling employee data.
