Calgary’s Neo Financial Achieves Billion Dollar Unicorn Status After $185 Million Round

May 5, 2022 by Fintech Newsdesk Leave a Comment

Canadian digital bank Neo Financial has raised a $185 million Series C round led by Valar Ventures.

The mammoth round brings Neo’s total funding to $299 million since its 2019 inception and values the company at over $1 billion, making Neo one of the fastest Canadian companies to reach the coveted ‘unicorn’ status.

Also participating in the round were Tribe Capital, Altos Ventures, Blank Ventures, Gaingels, Maple VC and Knollwood Advisory.

Neo Financial offers a variety of products to its customers, including cash-back rewards and savings. It expanded into investing in April with a private wealth management product, and plans a mortgage offering for later this year as part of its effort to be a “one-stop shop for all financial services for Canadians and retailers.”

“We started Neo to take on a massive challenge – to reimagine financial services for all Canadians. In an industry where the incumbents make up 90%+ of the market, we’ve been able to rapidly earn the trust of over one million Canadians and 7,000+ retailers across the country,” wrote co-founder Andrew Chau on LinkedIn.
