Trupanion, Inc. is a pet insurance provider headquartered in Seattle, Washington. Established in 1998, Trupanion operates across the United States, Canada, Australia, and Puerto Rico. The company offers coverage for pets and is self-underwritten by the American Pet Insurance Company (APIC).[1]
Originally known as Vetinsurance, Trupanion was founded in Canada by current chairman Darryl Rawlings in 1999.[2]
Trupanion raised $22 million in 2007 from investors including Maveron, RenaissanceRe, and a large private equity group.[3] Subsequently, a Series B round was completed in 2008, followed by a $9 million Series C round of financing led by the Highland Consumer Fund in 2011.[4][5]
In 2014, Trupanion went public, raising $71 million during its initial public offering (IPO).[6] The company continued its growth trajectory, culminating in October 2020 with the completion of a Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) funding round amounting to $200 million. By the end of the 2020 fiscal year, Trupanion reported revenue of $502 million.[7]
