Why Corporate Fitness Matters
At Kinexon, employees expressed a strong interest in a well-rounded benefits portfolio that includes sports and fitness programs. Before Wellpass, there weren’t any structured health promotion options within the company.
Wellpass stood out by offering a comprehensive, all-in-one wellness solution. Employees get access to a wide variety of sports and fitness activities without the hassle of booking through multiple providers. Plus, having a local presence in Munich added extra value.
Today, Kinexon team members enjoy choosing from multiple perks, including Wellpass for their sports activities (Sports Budget), the Spendit Card, NAVIT Mobility Budget, and additional allowances for training or technical gear.
Easy Onboarding and Benefits Employees Actually Use
New hires receive a benefits flyer before they start with HR managing the enrollment process. Employees consistently praise the ease and simplicity of using Wellpass.
Minimal Admin Work for HR
One of the biggest advantages of Wellpass is how little administrative effort it requires from HR. Invoices are sent monthly via email to Kinexon for review and approval before payment, keeping things straightforward. Sophie spends no more than 30 minutes monthly handling admin tasks related to Wellpass, such as checking invoices and employee registrations.
Real User Stories: Jakob’s Fitness Journey
Jakob from Kinexon’s Sports Division uses his Wellpass membership 1-3 times a week to feel healthy and energized. For him, it’s not about competition but about wellness and staying active.
“All colleagues who chose Wellpass love it and highly recommend it. Nobody’s had any negative experiences so far,” says Jakob. Registration was smooth, and although he’d like some improvements to the app’s studio search, Wellpass has totally transformed his workout routine. He now works out more often and tries new activities like climbing, group workouts, and yoga—all thanks to Wellpass’s variety and convenience.

Jacqueline’s Wellness Win: Spinning and Yoga
Jacqueline, part of Kinexon’s People & Culture team, is passionate about strength training and running and works out at least five times a week. She found Wellpass through the company’s internal communications and loves how easy it is to check in at partner gyms using QR codes.
“Wellpass let's me try lots of different sports—I’ve rediscovered spinning and yoga, which I really enjoy,” says Jacqueline. For her, the biggest perk is the unlimited access—she can use the same gym every day without restrictions.
