Chicago, Illinois, United States
What it is
UrbanBound is web-based relocation management software for employers and employees. Employers can manage policy benefits, reimbursements, vetted suppliers, and relocation spending through reporting that follows timelines and program data. Employees receive 24/7 access to a centralized app with benefits, location insights, and a move timeline. A dedicated Relocation Consultant guides each move, while UrbanBound’s relocation team answers questions and provides company and location information. Candidate tools let prospective employees book travel and hotels and submit expenses for reimbursement. Intern management supports payments, housing options, travel expense management, and stipend disbursements without payroll setup. Employers can monitor lump sum payment status with real-time tracking; UrbanBound says transfers use a PCI-certified solution to collect bank information and move funds. The platform also includes company and coworker insights. Custom licensing sets a fee per relocating employee, candidate, or intern, with add-ons available and fees varying by organization size and business needs. Pricing is on request.
