What it is

UrbanBound is web-based relocation management software for employers and employees. Employers can manage policy benefits, reimbursements, vetted suppliers, relocation spending, timelines, and program reporting. Employees receive 24/7 access to a centralized app with benefits, location insights, and a move timeline. A dedicated Relocation Consultant guides the move, while UrbanBound’s relocation team answers questions and provides company and location information. Candidate software lets prospective employees book travel and hotels and submit reimbursement expenses. Intern management covers payments, housing options, travel expense management, and automated stipend disbursements without payroll setup. Employers can view lump-sum payment status with real-time tracking and reporting. UrbanBound says transfers use a PCI-certified solution to collect bank information and move funds. It also announced a PracticeMatch partnership for physician recruitment tools. Custom licensing sets a fee per relocating employee, candidate, or intern, with add-ons and fees varying by organization size and needs.
