History

Stephen Ufford and Tanis Jorge founded Trulioo in 2011. The company raised $6 million in series A funding in 2014, led by Tenfore Holdings and with participation from BDC Capital and Blumberg Capital.[3] That same year, Trulioo launched a platform for international identity verification.

In 2015, Trulioo raised $15 million from American Express Ventures, BDC Capital, Blumberg Capital and Tenfore Holdings.[4] The company continued expanding globally, opening a satellite office in Dublin in 2018.[5]

In 2019, Trulioo secured $70 million in funding, including a $60 million series C led by Goldman Sachs Growth Equity and with participation from Citi Ventures, Santander InnoVentures and earlier investors.[6]

Trulioo reached unicorn status in 2021 following a $394 million series D funding round led by TCV, which valued the company at $1.75 billion.[7]

In 2022, the company acquired HelloFlow, a Denmark-based no-code onboarding platform, and expanded its operations to Singapore and San Diego.[8] In 2023, Trulioo rebranded and launched a new global identity verification platform for person and business verification.[9]

In 2025, Vicky Bindra was appointed Chief Executive Officer.[10]
