Travel-focused fintech Scapia has closed a $63 million Series B round, becoming one of 2026's largest fundraises in the travel-fintech category.


Round Details


  • Round size: $63 million Series B
  • Lead investors: Peak XV Partners and existing investors
  • Use of funds: AI product development, card portfolio expansion, supply-side partnerships
  • Valuation: Reported in the $400–450M range (undisclosed officially)

  • What Scapia Does


    Scapia issues a co-branded rewards credit card (in partnership with a major Indian bank) that converts every rupee spent into travel points redeemable across 150+ airlines and 700,000+ hotels. The platform has crossed 2 million cardholders.


    Why It Matters


  • Travel category is the fastest-growing credit card spend in India, with the RBI reporting 28% YoY growth in travel-linked card spends in FY26.
  • Scapia's AI roadmap includes personalised itinerary generation, dynamic redemption pricing, and predictive cashback — directly competing with bank-led co-brand programs.
  • The round positions Scapia alongside Niyo and Atlys in the India travel-fintech race.

  • Founder Commentary


    CEO and founder Anil Goteti said the capital will be used to "build the most rewarding travel financial product in India" and to grow the engineering team across Bengaluru and Bangalore.


    What's Next


    Scapia plans to launch a forex-free debit product, a UPI-linked travel wallet, and a B2B corporate travel offering in H2 2026.
