We advised Advent International on the acquisition of Stadline, a leading French SaaS management software provider dedicated to the sport and fitness industry.

Transaction Services Group (TSG), an Advent International’s portfolio companies and a leading global provider of business management software, integrated payments, and value-added services with focus on the Health and Fitness (H&F) and childcare markets, has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Stadline, an innovative provider of management software and services to the fitness sector, primarily in France.

Created via the merger of Stadline (founded in 2004) and Resamania (founded in 2008)  in 2015, Stadline is today considered the most dynamic, innovative and advanced SaaS player in the French market. Through the recently developed Resamania v2, the Stadline solution meets the needs of large multi-site fitness chains in the French market, which is driven by consolidation.

We believe the combination of Stadline and TSG will further reinforce the market-leader position of Stadline in France, leveraging TSG’s expertise in payments and value-added services to build a compelling integrated offering for clients. In addition, this combination will drive international expansion in markets where Stadline has already gained a foothold, notably starting in Spain. We are excited to join forces and welcome Frédéric, Pascal and Jérome, a team of passionate entrepreneurs, to the TSG family.

FLORIS DE KORT, CEO, TSG Group

When we merged our companies in 2015, we had a vision to build a unique and innovative solution in the industry, dedicated to providing large, multi-site fitness chains with the features and services they needed and could not find elsewhere. Together with Pascal Farange, COO, and Jerome Weber, CTO, we are excited about this new chapter in the Stadline adventure, and more than ever willing to lead the company to execute the combined strategy.
