The investment round was led by FirstPartyCapital with participation from strategic industry angels and AperiamVentures.
"We spent our first few years bootstrapping and I’m incredibly proud of that achievement. The goal with this latest round of investment is to accelerate growth, establishing ourselves in the US market to bring our user-first platform to a wider, global audience. Having FPC, AperiamVentures, Gurman Hundal, and Brian O’Kelley as part of that journey will allow us to deliver a better ad experience for both consumers and brands. And being able to do so with our continued focus on sustainability means we will strive to be a positive force on the industry."
The London-based fintech secured £19.3m to accelerate product development and expand internationally.
