Since its inception, Blueground raised $20 million in Series B funding led by WestCap Investment Partners and Prime Ventures to support international expansion in 2019.[3] The company raised an additional $50 million in Series C funding in 2020.[4]

In March 2024, the company announced it had raised $45 million in a Series D funding round led by Susquehanna Private Equity Investments with participation from WestCap. (Reference removed due to reliability concerns)
