Scapia

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.

A substantial portion of the newly raised capital will be invested in brand building and customer acquisition initiatives. The company also plans to deepen its AI-first approach to product development and talent acquisition, leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance customer experiences and drive operational efficiency.

The platform is specifically designed for Gen Z and millennial consumers, providing travel-centric rewards, seamless booking experiences, and digital-first financial solutions.

The latest fundraise comes at a time when travel spending in India is witnessing strong momentum, driven by rising disposable incomes, increasing digital adoption, and growing demand for personalised travel experiences. Fintech companies catering to lifestyle-focused use cases have also attracted significant investor interest as consumers increasingly seek integrated financial and travel solutions.
