EYSA, a Madrid-based provider of parking and mobility technology, has acquired Joinup, a Spanish platform that manages business travel and commuting for companies, the trade publication RRHH Digital reported on September 26, 2026. The deal had also been listed by InforCapital on September 23. Neither side disclosed the price.
Joinup was founded in 2012 by Elena Peyró and Alberto López and was backed by several private investors before the sale. It says it works for more than 1,000 companies and institutions in Spain, France, Belgium and Portugal.
Peyró, Joinup's chief executive, said the business would keep the same team, the same level of service and its focus on corporate mobility under its new owner. Deloitte and Natixis Partners Iberia advised EYSA, and DC Advisory advised Joinup's shareholders on the sale.
What Joinup built
Over time Joinup developed into a multi-service business-to-business platform specialised in corporate mobility. Its software lets a company handle several kinds of employee travel from one app and one back office: corporate taxi rides, transport for events and groups, parking, electric-vehicle charging, mileage tracking and carpooling. Invoices, spending limits and trip data for each journey are kept in the same place.
The company passed 1,000 active clients in 2025, including companies in Spain's IBEX 35 index, multinationals, hospitals, universities and public bodies, according to RRHH Digital. It works with a network of more than 25,000 taxis, gives access to more than 2,300 car parks and lists over 40,000 charging points in its app.
Joinup says more than 85% of the vehicles in its fleet are electric or carry Spain's ECO low-emission label, and its tools let employers see the carbon footprint of each trip.
Why EYSA is buying
EYSA began as a Spanish parking operator. Under the private equity firm H.I.G. Capital, which invested in May 2022, it expanded into a wider set of smart-mobility services, made five add-on acquisitions and grew to operate in more than 30 countries, according to H.I.G.'s announcement when it sold the company. Its services include on-street and off-street parking, tolls, traffic management and low-emission zones. H.I.G. completed the sale of EYSA to Tikehau Investment Management, part of the French asset manager Tikehau Capital, in August 2025, with chief executive Javier Delgado staying in charge.
Joinup moves EYSA closer to companies and their employees, rather than only to cities and road operators. EYSA said it wants to act as an orchestrator of mobility that connects infrastructure, regulation, services, operators and users. With Joinup it can help employers plan, book, pay for and manage different forms of transport together, and encourage greater use of public transport.
Delgado said companies increasingly need integrated tools to manage employee travel, control costs, run fleets, cut emissions and meet new legal obligations, and that combining Joinup with EYSA's services would give them a more complete offer covering corporate mobility, public transport, emissions offsetting, charging and fleet management.
A new law for employers
The timing is tied to regulation. Spain's Sustainable Mobility Law strengthens employers' obligations to draw up sustainable commuting plans for their workers and covers measures such as collective transport, shared mobility, charging for low- and zero-emission vehicles and carbon offsetting, RRHH Digital reported. Municipal, national and European rules are pushing in the same direction.
That makes the purchase a pitch to human resources departments as much as to travel managers. A platform that already records every trip and its emissions gives companies data they can use for those plans.
Joinup's tools already let companies measure the emissions of their employees' trips and feed that information into day-to-day management, which RRHH Digital presented as a way for employers to optimise routes and track progress on sustainability goals.
What happens to customers
Joinup's clients should see no immediate change. Peyró said joining a larger company would give Joinup more resources and technology and let it add new services faster, while keeping the team and specialisation that built the business.
Neither company said whether the Joinup brand will be kept over the long term, how many people Joinup employs, or how much EYSA paid.
