The fundraising, which includes a $100 million in debt from Silicon Valley Bank, will help the company launch new products, said cofounder and chief executive officer Kristy Kim.
“I started talking to investors casually at the beginning of the year, and we closed sometime in [the second quarter],” Kim said. “We were really lucky on the timing that we got the valuation before the market crashed.”
Kim said TomoCredit’s revenue grew 1,000% in the last year. Eventually, the company plans to offer other credit products like auto loans and mortgages.
TomoCredit started in 2018 after Kim, who immigrated from South Korea to the US to study at the University of California, Berkeley, found it hard to buy a car without a credit history in the US.
GoldHouse Ventures, Asian Hustle network and Hyphen Capital also participated in the company’s fundraising round. The Series B raise comes a year after the company raised its Series A led by Kapor Capital and KB Investment.
