Dixa Raises $14M in Series A Funding

We are excited to share that Dixa has recently secured $14 million in Series A funding with the help of Project A Ventures and early investor SEED Capital!

The newly raised funds will be used to expand our position as The Customer Friendship Platform, helping brands get closer to their customers across all communication channels.

From a kitchen to a $14 million Series A, it has been a wild ride since I founded Dixa with Jacob Vous Petersen, Jakob Nederby and Krisztian Tabori in 2015. I couldn’t be more excited and humbled to embark on this next chapter… None of this would be possible without the amazing Dixa team, our early investors, Preben Damgaard, Lars Thinggaard, Nikolaj Kornum, family, friends, business partners, advisors and last but not least, our amazing customers. Thank you!

Mads Fosselius, Dixa CEO and Co-Founder

The funding will also be used to accelerate the development of our next-gen engagement software and the expansion of sales and operations to new offices in London and Berlin.

As we look towards the future, we will continue to place a tremendous focus on our company culture, ensuring that Dixa builds friendships through our product, with own customers and within the company itself.

No tickets, no call center, no silos

In 2015, we set out to create software that supports an ongoing relationship between brands and their customers. Since then, our mission to empower customers and brands to build stronger bonds hasn’t changed. By having all relevant information in the same tool, our goal is that agents know each customer and their history the second they call, email, live chat or message — helping them provide a friendly, personalized experience every time.

A channel-neutral future of highly personal customer engagement

We see personalization and individualization as the most important elements of customer engagement. This is why we strive to help teams perform their best on all channels, making it possible to deliver a consistent level of personal service — regardless of how the customer reaches out. We see a future where the customer experience moves beyond being multichannel or omnichannel and instead becomes channel-neutral. We understand that customers want to contact companies in multiple ways — therefore, using holistic customer service software is key to delivering a superior customer experience. The choice of a specific channel should not determine the quality of the interaction.

Customer service and engagement is an increasingly important battlefield for most companies. Customers expect immediate top-notch service across an exploding array of communication channels. Existing customer service platforms do not serve this fast-growing market well. Dixa does. We believe Dixa has the potential to become a global category winner and are thrilled to co-lead this series A round.

– Niels Vejrup Carlsen, General Partner SEED Capital.

Dixa is a refreshing, new approach to true channel-neutral customer engagement and has had impressive growth to date. We are positive that the world’s customer-centric brands will embrace the platform and the customer friendship approach to developing personal bonds with their customers. Thus, they can create a significant improvement in customer experience and lifetime value.

– Uwe Horstmann, General Partner at Project A.
