Stephen Kaufer founded the company in 2000 in Needham, Massachusetts, originally intending to aggregate professional travel reviews before user submissions took over. The review corpus became the asset, and the business monetizes through hotel meta-search auctions, plus Viator for tours and TheFork for European restaurant bookings. Traffic depends heavily on search engine placement, which makes Google's own travel products a structural competitive concern. The company separated from Expedia in 2011.

- RSUs use single-trigger vesting: shares become yours as each portion vests on schedule, and the value is taxed as ordinary income at that point. No IPO or acquisition is required.

Tripadvisor equity questions
- How much does it cost to hedge TRIP stock?
- The cost of a protective put depends on how far below the current price you set the floor, how long the protection lasts, and TRIP's option-implied volatility. A zero-cost collar lowers that cost by selling away some upside. The calculator above prices both structures off the current TRIP option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
- Does Tripadvisor grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
- Equity compensation at Tripadvisor typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
- Do Tripadvisor RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
- No. Tripadvisor restricted stock units (RSUs) use single-trigger vesting: each tranche becomes yours as it vests on schedule, taxed as ordinary income at that point, with no liquidity event required.
