Fresh off our latest funding round and subsequent acquisition of YieldPlanet, we are thrilled to announce yet another milestone for Guesty: the strategic acquisitions of two premier Property Management technology solutions: Spain-based vacation rental software company, Kigo, and Australian property management software company, HiRUM. These newest additions to the Guesty family will allow us to continue expanding our global footprint, and increase R&D resources and product advancement for customers of all three platforms – while providing an enhanced level of services to hospitality operators across Europe, Australia, New Zealand and APAC. The mergers continue our long-term vision, expanding further into growing markets and offering an end-to-end solution for the complex and diverse needs of property managers and hospitality professionals in all category segments, wherever they operate.
Global reach, Local expertise
Kigo and HiRUM bring thousands of customers to the Guesty family, representing short-term rentals, vacation villas, aparthotels, and diverse hospitality listings within Europe and Australia’s thriving tourism sector. United in a shared mission, we have come together to standardize and advance the best-in-class software experience for simplifying property management and operations for PMCs and hospitality operators of all sizes, from traditional hotel listings, to holiday homes, to short-term rentals.
As Guesty welcomes the Kigo and HiRUM teams within the United States, Spain, the Philippines, and Australia to our growing international family, I believe that the joining of these forces is a key partnership for our ecosystem and brings together the best in the industry to accelerate our pace of innovation, provide greater support, and offer better solutions that will power the hospitality and property management industry into the future.
Our Shared Journey Continues
We are looking forward to this next step in our journey and, most importantly, the ability to provide even greater capabilities that are hyper-focussed on serving markets across Europe and APAC, while further cementing the company’s global standard of technology, expertise and level of service that have allowed our customers to thrive and made Guesty the industry leader.
On behalf of the entire Guesty family, we thank you for your continued support and look forward to our shared success!
