Tickitto offers an API for accessing tickets to events and other activities. Partners are able to search, book and manage experiences across multiple genres and cities.
The company last raised capital in June 2020, with a $700,000 round.
Coinciding with the seed capital, Tickitto has launched a marketplace for tickets to activities, theatres, sports and music.
The platform's supply is distributed by Amadeus to third parties and has secured partnerships from Carrefour Voyages and El Viajas Ingles.
The capital will be used to hire partnership development team and build out its data infrastructure, CEO Dana Lattouf says.
"Having focused on our technology while the events and travel industry was essentially in hiatus due to the global pandemic, we are now strongly positioned to develop new strategic relationships with suppliers and distributors."
