Bengaluru: Travel-focused fintech startup Scapia has raised $63 million (approximately ₹600 crore) in a fresh funding round led by General Catalyst, with participation from existing investors Peak XV Partners and Z47. The funding marks a significant milestone for the Bengaluru-based company as it looks to accelerate growth, strengthen its product offerings, and expand its presence in India’s rapidly growing travel-fintech segment.
