Wellhub Acquires Urban Sports Club

Wellhub

The corporate wellness platform acquired European rival Urban Sports Club.

Launch pad. Accelerating Wellhub’s global expansion, the combined network will serve 34.5K corporate clients and 83K holistic well-being partners, including premium gyms, studios, and digital solutions.

Growth mode. Valued at $2.4B and doubling revenue YoY, Wellhub gains a foothold in Europe’s DACH region, consolidating the market as it prepares for a potential IPO.

With employers racing to curb healthcare costs, Wellhub is strengthening its pitch as a one-stop wellness shop.

Arms race. The acquisition escalates competition with EGYM’s Wellpass. Both are on a buying spree — Wellhub (formerly Gympass) bought Italy’s Fitprime, while EGYM grabbed Hussle and FitReserve.

Employing different strategies, Wellhub’s holistic pivot targets burnt-out workers as EGYM scales its AI-driven fitness ecosystem.

Punchline: Fitness-led corporate wellness is shaping up into a clash of global superpowers.
