US-based expense management startup Divvy has raked in $165m in a Series D funding round, bringing the newly-minted unicorn’s valuation to $1.6bn.

The latest investment came from new investors including PayPal Ventures, Hanaco, Whale Rock, and Schonfeld.

Existing backers including NEA, Insight Venture Partners, Acrew, and Pelion also participated in the funding round.

Divvy said that it will use the fresh capital to invest in product development and engineering to boost its future growth.

The Utah-based company aims to consolidate credit, vendor, and spend management into a single platform.

It combines corporate credit cards with its free expense management software, providing businesses with the ability to view and control their budgets, and manage their spending.
