To improve the current user experience and continue using the service, we encourage existing travelokaPay users to upgrade their APP to v 2.20.

Visit from HMIF ITB

On 10 January 2018, we hosted a Traveloka Company Visit 2018 for HMIF ITB students (HMIF ITB is a Computer Science student organization in ITB). During that event, all participating students had the opportunity to have a close discussion with Deri and Rendy and also to gather insights from their alumni about their journey at Traveloka.

We hope that the session inspired these students and offered them valuable lessons and messages for their remaining time as university students as well as in their future adventures.

If you have any opportunity collaboration with University, reach us through academic-relations@traveloka.com.
