Best SaaS Companies in Spain
The 180 best SaaS companies in Spain in 2026, ranked by funding and momentum. Funding, investors, founders, valuation, tech stack and live signals. Top: hotelerum.
Spain's SaaS ecosystem is smaller than the headlines suggest, but it's real and it's moving. This page ranks the best SaaS companies in Spain by disclosed equity funding and recent funding momentum, pulling from 180 companies we track across the country.
Total disclosed funding sits at $1M across the cohort, with Hotelerum ($644,740) and Besepa ($530,622) leading by capital raised. No unicorns yet. But that funding gap between the top two and the rest of the directory tells you something worth sitting with: most of Spain's SaaS builders are pre-institutional, which makes momentum signals more useful than headline totals here. Globally, the SaaS market was valued at roughly $143.8B in 2021 and forecast to hit $172.0B by 2022 at a CAGR near 25.89%, so the macro tailwind is undeniable. And while consolidation is accelerating globally, with moves like Chargebee snapping up a founder-alumni startup signaling how fast the mid-market is tightening, the hot themes shaping Spain's segment right now are security-first: cloud-native firewalls, cloud security groups, and SaaS security policies are where product conversations are clustering this quarter. Regulatory compliance pressure is only adding fuel.
