SingTel Innov8, a subsidiary of Sing, led Yodo1's Series A funding and had participation from Chang You Fund.[9][10] Yodo1 acquired $5 million from the funding round.[9]
Yodo1 raised $11 million in Series B financing in December 2013.[11][12] GGV Capital led the funding round and had participation from SingTel Innov8, Pavillion Capital and Iris Capital.[2][11] This was the company's second funding round and raised its total funding to $18 million.[2]
