Tippsy: Funding, Investors & Team (Sep 2026)

Tippsy is an e-Commerce platform that focuses on promoting a modern drinking lifestyle for Japanese sake. They provide a wide selection of over 200 bottles on their website, along with visual tools to help customers easily choose their sake. Additionally, they offer a monthly subscription service, the Tippsy Sake Box, which includes three mini bottles each month to help customers explore the diverse flavors of different sake brews. By offering a convenient way to access and learn about sake, Tippsy aims to change people's perception of sake as a cheap, exotic, hangover-inducing drink only found in restaurants, and instead present it as a sophisticated and culturally rich beverage similar to wine.

About FundedIQ's Tippsy Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Tippsy is left off this page rather than filled in.
