ATLANTA, March 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Xplor Technologies today announced the successful close of its merger with Clubessential Holdings, marking the launch of a newly unified global company with a new brand, new visual identity, and a renewed vision for the businesses behind everyday life experiences.

The launch introduces a refreshed corporate identity across the company, its verticals, and its product portfolio, signaling a definitive moment of evolution for employees, customers, and the markets Xplor serves.

The launch also marks a new leadership chapter for the company. Randy Eckels, formerly Chief Executive Officer of Clubessential Holdings, now serves as Chief Executive Officer of Xplor Technologies.

"This is a defining moment for the new Xplor," said Eckels. "We are bringing together proven businesses, deep vertical expertise, and strong positions across our markets, under one global brand with a unified vision. We now have the focus, scale, and momentum to innovate faster, deliver more value, and set a new standard for what's possible in the industries we serve."

As part of this next chapter, Xplor is making a material, eight-figure investment to expand native AI capabilities across its platforms, accelerating the development of practical capabilities designed to help businesses automate routine work, respond faster, and unlock smarter decision-making across their business. One early example is an AI agent for Momence users, designed to help fitness operators reduce administrative burden, improve responsiveness across the member journey, and support more efficient growth.

The newly combined company serves customers across fitness and leisure, golf and club, recreation, and home services.
