Strategic Growth Initiatives
Founded in 2016, roadsurfer operates nearly 10,000 vehicles. It maintains a presence in over 90 locations across 16 countries. These include Germany, Spain, and the U.S. The platform offers rental, subscription, and sales services for camper vans. Furthermore, its "roadsurfer Spots" platform connects travelers with private landowners for camping.
The €25 million venture debt complements previous financing. A €60 million asset-backed securitization (ABS) operation, led by Macquarie Group, previously boosted roadsurfer's capacity. This brings roadsurfer's total financing capacity to over €500 million. Earlier in February 2025, Avellinia Capital provided a €30 million asset-backed investment. Competitors like Indie Campers and PaulCamper also operate in the growing travel tech sector. This roadsurfer funding highlights continued investment in European startups.
