Kiwi online travel booking and expense management for business company has today announced has added Apple Watch support to its integrated mobile travel and expense management app, Serko Mobile.

“I have no doubt that wearable tech will be quickly adopted, particularly amongst the corporate community,” says Darrin Grafton, Serko chief executive officer. “The Apple Watch is the first wearable that I believe will become truly mainstream which is why we made the decision to support it.

Grafton explains, “Having travel notifications and itinerary information delivered straight to your wrist is useful when you're travelling as your hands are almost always full and the information is often time critical.”

With a connected Apple Watch, Serko Mobile users can:          • Receive travel alerts         • Access travel itineraries         • Receive travel approval requests. Tto log into Serko Mobile users must have a Serko Online account.
