HealthJoy has raised capital through a series of funding rounds. Its investors include U.S. Venture Partners (USVP), Social Capital, Health Velocity Capital, Chicago Ventures, EPIC Ventures, and Sidekick Fund.[5] During the August 2017 Series A round, Chicago Ventures led the series with a total round of $3 million, according to the Wall Street Journal.[7][12]
The Series B round raised $12.5 million with U.S. Venture Partners leading the investment round. Health Velocity Capital led the company’s $30 million Series C round in February 2020.[13][14] In 2019, the company launched HealthJoy EAP, a mental health support project for corporate clients' employees seeking help for anxiety, depression and addiction and other mental issues.[10][15]
