Tanglin Venture Partners, Binny Bansal's 3STATE Ventures, and angel investors Keki Mistry (chief executive officer of HDFC Ltd) also participated in the funding round. Scapia converts a customer's everyday expenses into travel rewards stored in a co-branded card launched in partnership with the Federal Bank. The card, which operates on the Visa network, offers a 10% reward on every transaction, minting these into Scapia coins. The firm enables customers to redeem the coins for flights and hotel bookings.
