Prior funding included a $200 million series B in late 2019 at $1 billion valuation led by Primavera Capital with Tencent participation, $40 million from KKR in July 2019 at $700 million valuation.

Subsequent rounds included a $3 billion series D in February 2021 led by Sequoia Capital (HongShan) with Tencent and others, estimating valuation at $8 billion, and a $300 million unattributed round in July 2021. Xingsheng Youxuan competed in China's hot community group buying sector against rivals like Beijing Shihui Technology (Duo Duo Mai), amid a surge in VC funding for Chinese startups totaling $37 billion in early 2021. |
