Mews Reaches $2.5 Billion Valuation as Transaction Volume Hits €17 Billion
The Amsterdam-based hotel technology company grew revenue 39% to €291 million in 2025, with about three-quarters of that coming from transactions rather than software subscriptions. The harder task ahead is extracting more value from the money and operations already running through its platform.
Founded in Amsterdam in 2012, Mews started out selling property-management software to hotels. It has since pushed into payments, point of sale, revenue management, events and housekeeping, and is expanding further into AI and financial services. The company now describes its ambition as becoming an operating system for hotels.
Revenue grew 39% in 2025 to €291 million, or about $329 million. Roughly three-quarters of that total came from transactions rather than software subscriptions, making the business look less like a traditional software vendor and more like a payments and operations platform.
During the year, €17 billion — around $19.2 billion — in transaction volume moved through the platform.
That growth story has drawn enough investor capital to value Mews at $2.5 billion, placing it among the faster-growing companies in hotel technology.
Mews' corporate records are spread across the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the Czech Republic, alongside disclosures to its investors. The central question now is whether the company can capture more value from the money and operations it already touches — a broader and more difficult undertaking than simply adding customers.
