ShopBack is among a plethora of consumer startups raising funds to expand in Southeast Asia. It expanded in financial services last year by acquiring Hoolah, a “buy now, pay later” player.
“This is the perfect time to back winners, to consolidate their position, and gain share,” Nick Nash, managing partner at Asia Partners, said in the statement.
Founded in 2014 by Henry Chan and Joel Leong, the company is currently serving more than 35 million shoppers. It operates across 10 markets including Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Australia and South Korea. ShopBack’s investors include Rakuten Capital, EV Growth, Cornerstone Ventures and 33 Capital.
