From six engineering students to 10M users: Tryp.com raises €1.9M

Tryp.com has raised €1.9 million in a round led by Point Capital Partners. Iberis Capital, which backed the company’s earlier round, joined in again, along with angel investors. That puts total funding at €5.9 million.

The travel startup was founded in Odense in 2021 by six engineering students, is now based in Copenhagen, and runs a licensed travel agency in Lisbon. Its pitch is blunt: start with how much time and money a traveller has, then build the trip from there. Flights, trains, buses, ferries, stays and transfers all get stitched into one booking.

Under the hood, Tryp.com says it tracks more than 80 million fares and 28 million stays, and uses virtual interlining across more than 7,000 locations to sell routes no single carrier offers. The front end has also been built to push people away from the old search-box habit. Instead, users get a personalised “For you” feed powered by click-stream data and collaborative filtering, with 24/7 support from its AI assistant Sandra and the service team.

The company has leaned on AI from the start, and it claims the approach is already changing how people buy. Half of bookings now come from travellers who never typed a search at all. After four interactions, Tryp.com says its personalisation model almost triples the click rate on suggested trips. Recent releases have added personalised trip suggestions and transfers that connect every leg of a journey.

Growth has followed fast. Tryp.com says it has passed 10 million users since launch and now reaches about 1 million users a month. Sales have grown roughly fourfold annually on average since 2022, with revenue more than tripling so far in 2026. In September alone, sales topped €1.2 million, more than the whole of 2024, and the platform says it now sells around 14,000 tickets a month. The company also says its Country Manager programme generates around 40 million views a month, and its technology already powers WIZZ Holidays, launched by Wizz Air in July 2026. The new money is meant to bring in more travel brands, add experiences and activity-led trips before year-end, and prepare expansion into Asia and the Americas.
