Just recently, we announced that Liftopia secured its Series B round of funding, a big thanks to @jasonkincaid for a solid writeup in Techcrunch.
So what does this new round of investment mean for Liftopia? Well, it is all about continuing to build a platform that helps unite ski resorts with customers that want to get out on the hill more often. We are now entering into our 4th season of selling discount lift tickets online, and the progress throughout our first three seasons alongside this new bunch of capital means we can put our best foot forward in improving our service. We still have a lot of work ahead to improve our site for all of the folks that use it, and we will be investing in our site development to make sure it helps people get out on the hill more often.
This season you’ll see a lot of new things on our site, some which are already live (we launched a redesign of our site about a month ago), and many which you’ll notice as the season approaches. We are committed to making it as easy as possible for our customers to find the deals that are available, so keep an eye out for features like RSS Ski Deal Feeds for your favorite resorts, as well as other ways to stay on top of the best deals. Lastly, we will continue to work hard to add more resort partners, and it is looking like there will be many new options for you to check out this season.
Raising this round has been a lot of work itself, but we are very excited to put these new funds to work to improve our site for skiers, riders, and resorts alike.
