The startup offers digital business cards that digitize the data normally exchanged during networking. According to its own information, Bumpee has around 5,000 users. Spreadly, founded in 2022, claims to have around 50,000 users in over 100 countries. Through the acquisition in August <a href=\"\/en\/93529\/spreadly-acquires-competitor-clinck\/\">Acquisition of Clinck<\/a> A further 80,000 consumers are to be reached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spreadly: \u201cSignificantly more information about his counterpart\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Darius G\u00f6ttert<\/strong>, Co-Founder of Spreadly, explains the advantages of the digital business card in an interview with Munich Startup:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&quot;This solves several problems: On the one hand, the classic problem that almost 90 percent of paper business cards are thrown away before they&#039;re even saved in the contact information. Then there&#039;s the challenge of how to get contacts into your CRM after a trade fair, for example. We solve this through connecting, i.e., by scanning the other person&#039;s Apple or Google Wallet, for example, and thus having all contact information directly in their phone. This includes phone number and email address, but also social media accounts like LinkedIn, Twitter, or Instagram. You also get the office location, for example, and even the option to book an appointment. So you have significantly more information about your counterpart than if you just exchanged phone numbers.&quot;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Like Clinck before it, Bumpee will not continue as a brand; the app and users will be acquired by Spreadly. The purchase price is confidential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only recently, Spreadly completed a <a href=\"\/en\/94005\/spreadly-pre-seed\/\">Pre-seed financing round<\/a> The exact investment amount and the names of the investors were not disclosed. However, the startup revealed that the investment was based on a company valuation of \u20ac2.5 million.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The shopping spree continues: After acquiring its competitor Clinck in August, Munich-based business card startup Spreadly is now following suit with the acquisition of Bumpee.
