Jerry app, which offers a car insurance comparison service, has raised $75m in a Series C funding round led by Goodwater Capital.
The round also saw participation from new investors Highland Capital Partners and Park West Asset Management along with existing backers Bow Capital and Kamerra.
The oversubscribed round, which follows a $28m Series B round, values the firm at $450m and brings its total capital raised so far to $132m.
Jerry plans to use the proceeds to fund the launch of the app’s marketplaces in vehicle financing, repair, warranties, parking, maintenance, and additional money-saving services.
The compare and buy service, which was launched in 2019, leverages artificial intelligence- and machine-learning technology.
Jerry claims to serve over one million customers as a licensed insurance broker in all 50 states of the US.
