Hello, curious traveller. We have news: Tryp.com has raised €1.9 million to keep building the travel platform we always wanted to use, one that finds trips you didn't know existed and books them in one go. And the timing couldn't be better. We closed this round in September, which was also our best month ever.
Who's joining the journey
The round is led by Point Capital Partners, with Iberis Capital, who led our previous round and decided to back us again, and angel investors from the travel industry. It brings our total funding to €5.9 million.
"Tryp.com carves a unique niche at the intersection of travel search and booking, with a focus on flexible, budget-conscious travellers seeking complex, multi-stop journeys. With over 10 million users, its technology has already secured a strategic partnership with Wizz Air, a collaboration set to accelerate its growth. The company is led by an A-player founding team that has consistently executed on its vision." — Pedro Ceia, Investment Manager, Point Capital Partners
"We led the previous round of funding for Tryp.com because this team builds complex travel technology in a very capital-efficient way. Since then, the company has demonstrated the ability to deliver commercially: it has more than tripled its user base and become the technology partner for a major European airline's holiday platform. Investing again was an easy decision." — João Henriques, Partner, Iberis Capital
Built for trips a search box can't handle
Most travel sites ask where you want to go. We start from your budget and your dates. Our engine tracks more than 80 million fares across flights, trains, buses and ferries, plus 28 million stays, and combines them in real time into trips no single airline or rail company sells. That's how the same budget can take you to two or three cities instead of one.
It works: half of our bookings now come from travellers who never typed a search. They found their next trip in their "For you" feed.
The same engine also powers WIZZ Holidays, Wizz Air's package holiday platform, so Wizz Air passengers can build complete trips with our technology too.
A record September
More than 10 million people have now used Tryp.com, and September was our best month ever in sales. Closing a round in the same month tells us we're on the right track, and gives us the fuel to go faster.
What this means for your next trip
We're putting the new funding straight into the product. Here's what you'll notice.
Transfers, now with Bolt
You can already add airport, station and hotel rides to your trip on tryp.com, thanks to our new partnership with Bolt. Your flight, the ride to your hotel and your stay now sit together in one itinerary, so you land knowing exactly how you're getting there.
Experiences, coming soon
Later this year you'll be able to add tours and activities to your trip, and even build a whole trip around the thing you most want to do.
A feed that knows you better
The more you explore, the better your suggestions get. After just four interactions, travellers are almost three times more likely to tap on a trip we suggest. We'll keep making that feed smarter, with more surprising deals and routes you wouldn't have found on your own, and with Sandra, our AI assistant, and our team there for you 24/7.
What's next
With this round, we'll bring our technology to more travel brands, launch experiences, and take our first steps into Asia and the Americas.
"We started as six engineering students in Odense, frustrated with how hard it was to plan a trip. Ten million users later, an airline runs its holiday platform on the same engine. This round takes that technology to more partners without losing the capital efficiency that got us here." — André Rangel de Sousa, co-founder and CEO, Tryp.com
Thank you
To our team, to our investors, and most of all to you: every traveller who let our feed pick their next trip. None of this happens without you.
