London's apps funding activity in this dataset spans from December 2023 (Moody's $130K pre-seed) through September 2025 (Chip's $8M equity crowdfunding round), with disclosed deal sizes ranging from $50K to $401M. The top end is heavily concentrated in a narrow window: Wagestream's $401M round, AscendX's $59M raise, and NOAH's $22M seed all closed within weeks of each other in spring and early summer 2025, while Vitesse ($93M Series C) and Amity ($60M Series C) both transacted in mid-2024.
Earlier-stage activity runs throughout the full period, with seed and pre-seed rounds appearing consistently from late 2023 onward. Nine of the 50 rounds carry undisclosed amounts, and a large share — including the two largest deals — are labeled "Series Unknown," which limits stage-based segmentation. Fintech is the dominant vertical: Wagestream, Vitesse, Curve, Penfold, Chip, and SpacePay all operate in financial services, with health apps (Hiwell, Elvie, Kidney Beam) and productivity tools (Raycast, which closed a $30M Series B in September 2024) rounding out the set.

Frequently asked
What are the largest disclosed rounds among London app startups in this dataset?
Wagestream leads at $401M (Series Unknown, May 2025), followed by Vitesse at $93M (Series C, May 2024), Amity at $60M (Series C, July 2024), AscendX at $59M (Series Unknown, May 2025), and Curve at $48M (Series D, March 2025). These five deals account for a substantial portion of total disclosed capital across the 50 rows.
How many rounds have undisclosed amounts, and which companies are affected?
At least nine of the 50 rounds show undisclosed amounts, including Yonder, Raylo, Xamun, savvy navvy, OUNO App, Finboot, Cyferd, Cued, and Super Banana. This limits direct deal-size comparisons across the full set and is worth flagging before building any size-ranked shortlists.
What does the stage distribution look like across these 50 rounds?
Seed and pre-seed rounds are the most frequent labeled stages, with pre-seed entries ranging from Moody's $130K (December 2023) to Hexis's $2M (May 2024). A large share carry a 'Series Unknown' designation — including the two largest deals, Wagestream and AscendX — making round-stage filtering less reliable than filtering by disclosed deal size.
Which app verticals are most visible in London's recent funding activity?
Fintech and financial services apps form the clearest cluster: Wagestream, Vitesse, Curve, Penfold, Chip, SpacePay, and First Digital Trade all fall within that space. Health and wellness (Hiwell, Elvie, Kidney Beam), productivity tooling (Raycast's $30M Series B in September 2024), and gaming (Reality Games London's $5M seed in March 2025) also appear across the dataset.
Is there any equity crowdfunding activity in this dataset?
Yes — Chip raised $8M via equity crowdfunding in September 2025, the most recent round in the dataset and the only crowdfunding deal among these 50 entries.
What is the smallest disclosed round in this set, and what stage was it?
First Digital Trade closed a $50K seed round on April 1, 2025 — the smallest disclosed amount in the dataset. Among pre-seed rounds, Inspecti raised $80K in September 2024 and Moody raised $130K in December 2023.
