In its Series A financing round, Coya has received nearly $30 million[4][5]. The company is strategically and financially backed by investors such as Valar Ventures, e ventures, La Famiglia, yabeo as well as various business angels such as Mato Peric and Rolf Schrömgens. It also received cash injections from PayPal founder Peter Thiel[6] and was in the list of top 30 funded German startups in 2019[7].
Business Model
Coya's business model is based on a digital paperless insurance that enables customers to get insured quickly and to manage their insurance claims and policies directly through an online dashboard without the need of insurance brokers and agents.
