Quince funding rounds
| Date | Stage | Investors | Raised | Valuation | Deal Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mar 2026 | Series E | ICONIQ Capital (lead); Baillie Gifford; Wellington Management; 8VC; WndrCo; MarcyPen Capital Partners; Basis Set Ventures; DST Global; Notable Capital | $500M | $10B | Quince announced a USD 500 million Series E round on 11 March 2026 at a valuation of USD 10.1 billion, more than double its reported valuation a year earlier. ICONIQ, which had also led the company's USD 200 million Series D in 2025, led the round. Other participants included Basis Set Ventures, Wellington Management, WndrCo, MarcyPen Capital Partners, Baillie Gifford, Notable Capital and DST Global. Quince says its top-line revenue has surpassed USD 1 billion. The San Francisco company sells apparel, home goods, accessories, beauty and wellness products made directly by factories, which it offers at prices far below traditional retail, and became known for its USD 50 cashmere sweater. |
| Jul 2025 | Series D | ICONIQ Capital (lead) | $200M | $4.5B | Quince raised about USD 200 million in a Series D round led by ICONIQ Capital in July 2025, at a valuation of USD 4.5 billion that was reported to be roughly double its previous valuation. The round came about six months after its USD 120 million Series C led by Notable Capital and Wellington Management. Bloomberg first reported the deal on 28 July 2025 and trade press confirmed it in the days after. Quince is a San Francisco company, founded in 2018, that retails clothing and home goods made directly in factories at prices well below traditional retailers. It grew through social media attention for items such as its USD 50 cashmere sweater and has since widened into accessories, beauty and wellness. Its total funding after the round was reported at about USD 461.5 million. |
| Jan 2025 | Series C | Notable Capital (lead); Wellington Management (lead); Ding Zhou; 8VC; Basis Set Ventures; DST Global | $120M | - | Quince is a San Francisco-based direct-to-consumer e-commerce company founded in 2018, specializing in affordable luxury products such as cashmere sweaters, apparel, accessories, home goods, jewelry, travel items, beauty, wellness, and food. It employs a manufacturer-to-consumer (M2C) model, connecting factories directly to customers via its platform, bypassing wholesalers and retailers to cut costs, manage design, sourcing, logistics, and enable smaller-batch production with less waste through proprietary tech stack and sales forecasting. Quince raised $500 million in a Series E funding round announced on March 11, 2026, at a $10.1 billion post-money valuation, more than doubling its prior $4.5 billion valuation from a $200-290 million Series D in early 2025. The round was led by Iconiq Capital, with participation from Wellington Management, DST Global, Notable Capital, Basis Set Ventures, Marcy Venture Partners (or MarcyPen Capital Partners), Baillie Gifford, and WndrCo. Funds will support product assortment expansion, supply chain and technology development, and international growth including recent entry into Canada. The company reported surpassing $1 billion in annual revenue, with triple-digit year-over-year growth since founding, driven by assortment expansion beyond apparel. It sells primarily to U.S. consumers through its website and app, sourcing from global factories in Asia and Europe. Quince has faced lawsuits from brands like Tapestry (Coach parent), Williams Sonoma, Deckers, and others alleging design copying or dupes, though it won one case and customers remain engaged. Investors highlight its hyperefficient infrastructure addressing retail inefficiencies. This Series E follows the queried investors' involvement but occurred in 2026, not January 2025, with no matching earlier round found. |
| May 2023 | Series B | Wellington Management (lead); Lugard Road Capital; 8VC; Basis Set Ventures; GGV Capital; Insight Partners | $77M | - | Quince, the San Francisco direct-to-consumer retailer, raised a USD 77 million Series B in May 2023, led by Wellington Management with participation from GGV Capital and continuing backing from Basis Set Ventures, Insight Partners, Lugard Road Capital and 8VC. The round was an up-round that followed the USD 50 million Series A led by Insight Partners in November 2021. The proceeds were intended to fund category expansion and hiring as the company broadened its range of apparel, home goods and accessories. Quince markets a manufacturer-to-consumer model in which goods are produced by partner factories and shipped directly to customers, which lets it sell premium-fabric essentials at prices well below traditional retail. The company was founded in 2018 and is headquartered in San Francisco. It had been funded by early backers including Founders Fund, 8VC and Basis Set Ventures before the Series B, and went on to raise further rounds in 2025. |
| Nov 2021 | Series A | Insight Partners (lead); Luxor Capital Group; 8VC; FJ Labs; Basis Set Ventures; Founders Fund | $50M | - | Quince, a San Francisco direct-from-manufacturer online retailer, announced a USD 50 million Series A on 30 November 2021, its first official round of funding after about USD 14 million raised before its 2018 launch. Insight Partners led the round, with participation from existing backers including Founders Fund, Basis Set Ventures, FJ Labs and 8VC. Founder Sid Gupta said the company had grown revenue 15 times year over year in 2021 and reached an annual run rate of USD 100 million. The money was to fund hiring of more than 100 employees over six months, improve back-end technology and expand into new product categories. Quince sells items such as cashmere sweaters at prices well below department stores by buying directly from factories. |
| Jan 2021 | Seed | 8VC (lead); Founders Fund (lead); WndrCo; FJ Labs; Basis Set Ventures; Decent Capital; Ironwood Ventures | $6M | - | Quince, the US direct-to-consumer apparel and home essentials brand, raised a seed round in early 2021 shortly after its public launch in October 2020. Quince sells premium-quality products such as cashmere sweaters at low prices by sourcing directly from manufacturers and skipping traditional retail markups. The seed capital funded the early build-out of its product categories and supply chain. It was the first institutional financing after the company's launch and preceded later Series A to Series E rounds that scaled the business. |
| Nov 2019 | Seed | 8VC; Basis Set Ventures; Founders Fund | $4M | - | Quince, then operating as Last Brand, raised seed funding in late 2019 from 8VC, Founders Fund and Basis Set Ventures. The round was an early-stage equity investment in a start-up that was founded in 2019 and had not yet launched publicly. The company later disclosed that its seed funding was led by Founders Fund, 8VC and Basis Set Ventures. The backers were attracted by a direct-to-consumer model that sells goods made by factories directly to customers without traditional retail markups. Last Brand was rebranded as Quince in June 2020 and publicly launched in October 2020. Quince is a United States online retailer of apparel, home goods and accessories, and it has since grown through several larger funding rounds. |
| Mar 2019 | Seed | 8VC; Basis Set Ventures; Founders Fund | $5M | - | Quince, the San Francisco direct-to-consumer apparel and home brand, raised an early seed financing backed by 8VC, Basis Set Ventures and Founders Fund. These three investors are reported as the leaders of the company's seed round, which it disclosed when it publicly launched in October 2020. The company was founded as Last Brand and was renamed Quince in June 2020. Its model sells goods made directly with manufacturers, cutting out intermediaries and retail markups, and offering items such as cashmere sweaters and silk at low prices. The seed capital funded the build-out of its supply chain and product range before the company began raising larger rounds. Insight Partners and DST Global later became investors as Quince scaled into a multi-billion-dollar valuation. |
