Daytrip, an intercity car transfer platform, has closed a Series A funding of €6.14 million.
The investment in the Czech Republic-based startup was led by Euroventures, with existing investors J&T Ventures, Nation 1 VC and Pale Fire Capital also involved.
The company, which was founded in 2015, helps travelers find long-distance car transfers with local drivers.
Daytrip says it continued expansion plans during the pandemic, tested a new ride-sharing service in Italy and Mexico and launched a new website and app.
Daytrip will use the funding for expansion as well as product development.
Tomas Turek, CEO at Daytrip, says: “The trust that Euroventures put in us and their investment allows us not only to continue on our pre-Covid exponential trajectory, but also to exploit entirely new and exciting opportunities that have since emerged in our markets.”
Daytrip initially kicked off its Series A funding in early 2020 with a €1 million raise. At the time it said it was looking to raise €5 million in total.
