The story

Founded 2015 as TravelPerk, a corporate travel booking platform. Expanded into expense management via the 2025 Yokoy acquisition, then rebranded to Perk to signal evolution from pure travel booking into a combined travel + spend management platform. The 2026 Katanox partnership for hospitality payments infrastructure and the $300M credit facility underscore the pivot toward AI-native embedded finance across the travel-spend workflow.
