Creaegis served as the lead investor, according to a report from TechCrunch. Other contributions came from ICICI Venture and Bessemer Venture Partners, as well as existing backer Blume Ventures.
Zopper will use the capital to scale its team and acquire smaller startups.
The InsurTech company has built an insurance infrastructure API platform that is democratising access to insurance distribution.
It claims to enable every B2C company to distribute insurance, from curating tailored insurance plans for clients and their customers to providing the right APIs. Currently, it supports motor, lifestyle, health, life and marine insurance, among others.
Zopper has presence in over 1,200 Indian cities and is partnered with over 150 companies, including Ola, Croma, Xiaomi, Hitachi and others.
The company is looking to hold its initial public offering in around five years, but only when its revenue nears $1bn.??
