Foodcoin
Foodcoin is a Madrid-based foodtech/loyalty startup offering a cross-merchant rewards platform for the hospitality sector: customers earn redeemable "foodcoin" points on purchases at any affiliated bar or restaurant, with no integration cost for venues. Launched in 2021 by the team behind the pandemic-era "Adopta un Bar" initiative, it works with 2,500+ restaurants in Spain and has expanded into LATAM. It has raised roughly $2.5M across three funding rounds (including one via equity crowdfunding platform Fellow Funders) from investors such as Pascual Innoventures, Chamberí Ventures, and Madrid Emprende.
