Focusing on Mobile and Local Discounts, DDMap Bags $40 Million in Funding
Chinese online city listings company DDMap has today revealed a new and sizable round of funding. CEO Xu Longjiang, talking to Chinese media, said the financing was worth US$40 million and was led by US-based CID Capital and China-oriented F&H Fund Management. Much of DDMap’s business is actually in local promotions via its mobile apps DDCoupons, DDLife, and the newer DDCheckins. Therefore, Xu Longjiang says that much of the funding will go towards investment in its smartphone apps and this “local lifestyle” and discounts sector. For example, through partnerships with venues in over 40 Chinese cities, users of the DDCoupons app could get an immediate in-store discount of, say, 20 percent without the need for printing a voucher or anything.
The Shanghai-based company was started up in 2005 and has received funding in the past from HTC (TPE:2498) in a $9million round, and also from Morningside Group and KTB Ventures before that.
In addition to its mobile internet business, DDMap has a daily deals portal, and online maps and local bus routes. It’s up against local promotions from the likes of the startup Buding, as well as major group buy and review sites such as Dianping.

DDMap が行なう事業のほとんどは、同社のモバイルアプリ DDCoupons、DDLife、さらに新しいDDCheckins を通じて街の情報を提供することだ。だから、今回調達した資金のほとんどはスマートフォンアプリの開発やDDLife事業、ディスカウント事業に注入されるとXu 氏は言う。例えば、40を超える中国の街にある施設との提携を通じて、DDCoupons のユーザーは、例えば20％という、店内ディスカウントを即座に得ることができ、割引券などを印刷する必要はない。
上海に拠点をおく DDMap は2005年に事業を開始し、過去には 900万ドルの資金調達で HTC (TPE:2498) から出資を受けており、それ以前にはMorningside Group や KTB Ventures からも資金調達を行なっている。
DDMap は、モバイルインターネット事業のほかにも、日替わりクーポンポータルやオンライン・マップ、地域のバス路線なども提供している。スタートアップのBuding（布丁）のような地域情報サービスや Dianping（点評）などの大手共同購入やレビューサイトなどと競合している。
