Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Barcelona, we've grown to over 1,800 people across Europe and North America. In 2022 we became a 'unicorn' and in 2025, we raised Series E funding at $2.7 billion valuation, alongside our acquisition of Yokoy, to become the leader in integrated travel and expense management.

We've been winning awards too. Since 2023, we've been voted one of the best places to work, one of the fastest-growing apps and tech companies, and a leading pioneer of business travel.
