Curve, a London-based banking platform which allows customers to consolidate multiple cards into one smart card and app, announced it has secured $95 million as part of a successful Series C funding round.
This fresh funding brings the total investment in Curve to almost $175 million.
The funding round was led by IDC Ventures, Fuel Venture Capital and Vulcan Capital (the investment arm of the estate of Microsoft co-founder and philanthropist Paul G. Allen), with participation from OneMain Financial, a US personal finance company, and Novum Capital. Counting IDC Ventures, Curve also attracted many of its investors for a second time.
Curve will deploy the investment to expand internationally including to the US and to deepen its European reach. Curve will also use the fresh funding to drive ongoing product innovation, notably of Curve Credit in early 2021.
